Post.Office has nice administrative tools over the web, and also provides very nice utilities for users, via the web. It is very easy to install, and their support staff is always inviting and welcome to accept any suggestions you have to offer. However, before you can justify paying for a new mail daemon, I suggest you look into doing what you want to do in another way - using sendmail. There are various sendmail faqs/howtos and even the bsdi-users mailing list (which SHOULD be a digest, but anyway) that can help you along. FYI: Post.Office has a demo. Try it, it works great, and it really appealed to me. -- ,-------------------------------------------------------, |Lance Cavener Systems Administrator | |cavenerl@nbnet.nb.ca Senarius | |admin@novacon.com | `-------------------------------------------------------'
