Thanks all for the suggestions. I agree with Ezra said. I am clearly losing
the battle due to the fact that I have no implemented a solution but the
reason for this is because I did not know how to configure one. I have no
problem getting Postfix and Dovecot up and running on my server but I am
unable to find a guide that helps me configure Amavisd-new & Spamassassin
with Postfix. That has been my biggest challenge is finding something that
guides me to configure all of these to work together and function.

Thank you all so much for every reply. I have sent things to the Google
Postfix Group for months and have never had one single reply and or
suggestion. Its nice to see people with good / positive suggestions!
