Add MTA for Mailman and Hydra #22

Description

@aszlig

This is useful for sending build failure notifications and for serving public malinglists in conjunction with Mailman.

Things left to do in no particular order:

  • Rewrite the type for config so that whenever something like config.alias_maps.hash is specified, the corresponding map file is automatically created.
  • Run each Postfix service as a different user.
  • Provide a sane default configuration.
  • Add module assertions for impossible service configuration combinations.
  • Improve NixOS VM test.
  • Handle processLimit.
  • Set ambient capabilities for Postfix services.
  • Move sockets to /run.
  • Implement chroot and namespacing.
  • Add a postfix.target to better control all Postfix service units at once.
  • Implement waking up Postfix services.
  • Strip down postmap to just map file creation.
  • Properly set permissions on sockt files.
  • Get rid of postdrop group.
  • Add an option for Postfix service description.
  • Implement custom merge function for the config option so that scalars is merged using lists.
  • Take care of helper programs like sendmail or postqueue.
  • Perform extra validation of the config file during build time.
  • Log to stderr instead of syslog.
  • Adjust throttling of service restarts.
  • Implement high level abstractions (like eg. cfg.maps or cfg.restrictions).
