Hi Peter
T'm sorry to be so length to answer you.
I realize my troubles come from my way of reading manual :
I don't understand why first lines of part III. "Preparations" say :
"Before you start the installation you must install all components from  
step II"
when  "Required packages" appears in the V.1.1. section
My way of reading would see  "Required packages" in the "II.6 Imap  
Server" section
Don't you confirm ?
I notice It speaks indeed postfix ! "postfix-mysql", doesn't it postfix  
programm need ?
I hope don't boring you
