Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't
either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+<h2><a name="SECTION001610000000000000000">
+6.1 Using the Postfix mail server</a>
+</h2>
+
+<p>
+Mailman should work pretty much out of the box with a standard Postfix
+installation. It has been tested with various Postfix versions up to and
+including Postfix 2.1.5.
+
+<p>
+In order to support Mailman's optional VERP delivery, you will want to disable
+<code>luser_relay</code> (the default) and you will want to set
+<code>recipient_delimiter</code> for extended address semantics. You should comment
+out any <code>luser_relay</code> value in your <span class="file">main.cf</span> and just go with the
+defaults. Also, add this to your <span class="file">main.cf</span> file:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ recipient_delimiter = +
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+Using "<tt class="samp">+</tt>" as the delimiter works well with the default values for
+<var>VERP_FORMAT</var> and <var>VERP_REGEXP</var> in <span class="file">Defaults.py</span>.
+
+<p>
+When attempting to deliver a message to a non-existent local address, Postfix
+may return a 450 error code. Since this is a transient error code, Mailman
+will continue to attempt to deliver the message for
+<var>DELIVERY_RETRY_PERIOD</var> - 5 days by default. You might want to set
+Postfix up so that it returns permanent error codes for non-existent local
+users by adding the following to your <span class="file">main.cf</span> file:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+Finally, if you are using Postfix-style virtual domains, read the section on
+virtual domain support below.
