I found the previous responses interesting. Nobody mentioned Postfix or Exim. Postfix is still my personal favorite. It's what I install when setting up a new system. It's what's running on my colo, doing such fantastic things as SASL authentication and TLS with certificates. It's what's running on my Mac. Personally, I like the usually-single configuration file with its straightforward directives. Our college just switched to Exim from Postfix after a few years (dunno, maybe 10?) of use. From what I learned from our mail admin, Exim allows you to better split up the stages of email handling, which is preferred for a medium-sized community like ours. Valid users are checked against NIS, Mailman, a custom aliases file, as well as various anti-spam and anti-virus stages. -- Ian Langworth Project Guerrilla Northeastern University College of Computer and Information Science _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
