Description

Based on the comment in DisQus:

I think it would be worthwhile pointing out to readers of this guide at the very beginning that there is the following alternative.

https://www.linode.com/docs/email/postfix/troubleshooting-problems-with-postfix-dovecot-and-mysql/#step-by-step-configuration

I for one would have opted to the more detailed guide given the promise that it would be more educational to go through things in an incremental fashion rather than taking shortcuts to avoid redundant work. Now, I'm hesitant to use this latter guide since I don't know how to get back to a pre-install state given all the configuration files that have been created.
