[mdlug] Postfix question

Greetings,
   I was attampting to set up a server at a site and was perplexed when it 
would not receive mail from the outside world.  I'm presuming that Postfix 
does what sendmail did, and that it ONLY listens on the loopback interface 
and not the ethernet.  This was an *easy* fix with sendmail, but I've 
never used Postfix so this is new to me.

   Can someone who has used Postfix in a "server" environment give me a 
few pointers how to set it up?  

   Thanks!
      --- Jay
