+<p>
+If your first attempts to send mail result in messages bouncing, you've likely
+made a configuration error somewhere. Try temporarily enabling
+<c>soft_bounce</c> while you work out your configuration issues. This prevents
+postfix from bouncing mails on delivery errors by treating them as temporary
+errors. It keeps mails in the mail queue until <c>soft_bounce</c> is disabled or
+removed.
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Enabling soft_bounce">
+# <i>postconf -e "soft_bounce = yes"</i>
+# <i>/etc/init.d/postfix reload</i>
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+Once you've finished creating a working configuration, be sure to disable
+or remove <c>soft_bounce</c> and reload postfix.
