At one point it says
Configuring PostfixHere we go with more config files. You'll have to be sure to change some settings to match your host. The config files will have sections commented out. Don't worry about it. These sections are for spam/virus/sympa configuration. Just copy and past to create the config files. What ever you see here replaces what already exists.
The main postfix config files. /etc/postfix/main.cf http://main.cf
Definately something wrong here. as root:
grep post install.log
You should see (for Centos 6.3):
Installing postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.i686
or x86_64 based on architecture. This creates all the postfix default files. Or install postfix via yum.
When I checked, I did not find any folder postfix in my /etc path. Even I searched the whole machine, I did not get main.cf http://main.cf anywhere. Does it mean that I have done some mistake somewhere in earlier steps.
Even, in main.cf http://main.cf file given in above link has an entry as below.
*daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix*
But in my machine I do not see any postfix folder in path /usr/libexec. However I found /var/lib/postfix folder. So should I use /var/lib/postfix instead of */usr/libexec/postfix*.
All the postfix directories in that howto work, but I did not go with his 'use my main.cf' I studied it, using postconf and created a script containing:

============================================
that append above addresses that postconf cannot handle continues. You can replace it with a single line command; I like the multiline formatting.
If you want more help, let's take it off list. I am at IETF in Orlando right now, and IEEE 802 next week, then Passover after that, so my posting speeds will vary.
