Some documentation flow refactoring and updates:

- Improve advice on IP binding; Follow up on issue #641
 - mailradar is dead. Found mxtoolbox instead
 - Fix some internal linking

-This address should be configured on one of the network interfaces of the server.
-If the address is not configured directly (NAT) on any of the network interfaces or if

 - ``cert`` is the default and requires certificates to be setup manually;

+Bind address

+
+Modify ``BIND_ADDRESS4`` and ``BIND_ADDRESS6`` to match the public IP addresses assigned to your server. For IPv6 you will need the ``<global>`` scope address.
