PAE seems to disable kld module used for example if you have a firewal  
such as ipf (and haven't compiled it in the kernel).

I have seen that this will allow to take full capacity of the memory -  
on the other hand there seems to have restriction on the ports
Can anyone let me know if these restrictions will apply to:

- postfix
- postgreSQL
- amavisd-new
- dovecot
