So yes, you are right, Postfix was developed from scratch. But you are wrong when you say qmail was not the basis for postfix.

I think a better description of the history would be to say that qmail was so bad that Wietse started from scratch to write something useful. And meanwhile, the problems with sendmail that they both set out to fix were solved anyway.

Wietse didn't write postfix because of qmail, but because of DJB.
