[Postfix RPMs] YUM repository now available for RPMS

Hello all,

Until recently I have been providing an apt-get(8) repository to enable 
users to more easily download/upgrade my rpms. More recently yum(8) has 
been provided in many distributions and provides similar functionality. It 
is also easier to setup.

>From now on I will only be providing a yum repository for my Postfix and 
pflogsumm packages.  This will provide a replacement to the apt repository 
which has not been working since the relocation of files on my ftp/web 
server.

For those of you interested in using yum to keep Postfix up to date the 
changes to the locally installed /etc/yum.conf are indicated below (also 
available at the following url: http://ftp.WL0.org/yum/yum.conf.sample)

I hope this new repository will be useful.  If you decide it use it please 
also consider adjusting the yum.conf to use one of the Postfix RPM mirrors 
listed on my web site: http://postfix.WL0.org/en/mirrors/ if there is a 
closer mirror to you.

Regards,

Simon
