How about using the CentOS wiki -
I have used this and know it works as advertised!

You also asked this exact same question on the Fedora mailing list.   I
answered it for you there.

If you want a appliance-like distribution that does this out of the box, 
look at SME server from www.contribs.org.  Otherwise, look at MimeDefang 
and clamav for filtering (both in rpmforge), and horde or squirrelmail.

There is a tutorial for using Postfix, Courier, Squirelmail, and mySQL 
on FC10 at:

http://howtoforge.net/virtual-users-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-squirrelmail-fedora-10

We have gotten this working on Amahi (amahi.org), see: 
http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Amahi_Mail_System

I have been running this since mid september (I was bigfoot's beta 
tester). I run 4 domains and about 30 users on a 1Ghz/512Mb Compaq SFF 
server. I process around 5000+ smtp connections/day or which only half 
get processed as 'reasonable' connections and 2/3 of that get canned as 
spam resulting in ~700/day good messages. So the system really works to 
filter out the trash.

We are working on moving Amahi to FC11 and develop a Centos version.

I tried contribs.org, but I could not 'live' with the limitation of an 
email address in only one domain and the workaround to deal with it. My 
address of 'rgm' is used in a number of my domains, for example.

The mySQL tables for the above setup are easy to manage. All the mail 
ends up in /home/vmail/<domain>/user, making it easy to manage. I ran 
SCALIX for about 7 years, and all the mail in a SQL database was nothing 
but a pain.
