if you find something wrong (references to the wrong sections, e.g.)
feel free to either make correctons to the wiki (it's a wiki after
all) or maybe ask others in the forum
http://www.open-xchange.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=3

if the install instructions specifically mention the installation of
postfix packages, then yes, you probably want to install postfix.
unless you want (or have) to use some other MTA, but then the OX wiki
won't be of much help in this regard.  since you don't seem to have a
need to use some other MTA there is very good reason to do just as the
instructions say.

since this is now going on for several weeks I also suggest you ask
someone more experienced to help with setting things up. or maybe
start with another project that does not involve integration of many
components you're complete infamiliar with.

regards,
