Fabio Pedrazzoli <address@hidden> described the package as follows:

Other License: 
Package: Postphpix, mail subsystem 
System name: postphpix
Type: GNU

Description:
postPHPix is a PHP interface to manage a mail subsystem based
on postfix, ldap and courier servers.
I started this project needing a mail subsystem that should be:
-secure   [no system users]
-scalable [daemons intercommunicates via socket so can be 
           splitted on many phisical servers for high traffic systems
           using eventually SSL encription]
-reliable [after splitting the daemons, you can get systems reduntant 
           using for example heartbeat clustering software, and the       ldap 
database allow you to manage and backup user information quickly
           or realize a mail folder backup server easily]
-packageable [for many years I used Qmail, now I need more license flexibilty, 
so I decided to study and use Postfix, this architecture is the mail subsystem 
of the Argo GNU/Linux distribution that soon will be available as free software 
too]

A bigpicture explaining how the subsystem works is available here:
