These introductions are hyperlinked to more advanced 26documents and to UNIX-style manual pages. The UNIX-style manual 27pages are intended for people who are already familiar with Postfix. 28</p> 29 30<ul> 31 32<li> <a href="OVERVIEW.html"> Postfix architecture overview </a> 33 34<li> <a href="BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html"> Basic configuration 35</a> 36 37<li> <a href="DEBUG_README.html"> Trouble shooting </a> 38 39<li> <a href="CONTENT_INSPECTION_README.html"> Content inspection 40overview</a> 41 42<li> <a href="SMTPD_ACCESS_README.html">Relay/access control overview 43</a> 44 45<li> <a href="DATABASE_README.html"> Lookup table overview </a> 46 47</ul> 48 49<h2> Postfix manual page organization </h2> 50 51<p> Each Postfix manual page is numbered after a section of the 52UNIX manual: examples are <a href="mailq.1.html">mailq(1)</a> or <a href="access.5.html">access(5)</a>. Unfortunately, 53there is no single universal method to organize manual pages; each 54UNIX flavor appears to be different. Postfix documentation assumes 55the following convention: </p> 56 57<blockquote> 58 59<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> 60 61<tr><th> Section </th> <th> Topic </th> </tr> 62 63<tr><td
