Can we put ofalk in charge of this part of the work? I know nothing about
the export process he's developed.

I will take care of putting the old server in maintenance mode in the
evening of the 17th, Pacific time. Would that interfere with ofalk's export
script?

In general, these are the instructions I follow when I setup postfix on a
new server:

I think it it would be good for you to get root access to the old server so
that you can look at the actual config. Ask on IRC.
