Actually Civileme I've been around here longer than you and I remember when you you used to post to the list before mandrake got ahold of you. You have allot of good to say but I don't think you understand my motives in asking this. I run qmail most of the time for quite a few reasons but I recently discovered that postfix will do much the same kinds of things as qmail. I was not surfing the web looking for that web page I was rather looking for info on how to run postfix with maildrop when I ran across this link. One of the main reasons that I run qmail for is security. My thinking on this is that if postfix will do the job without some of the other problems with the qmail djb-ware thing I will use use postfix instead. This is only viable if Postfix can offer everything that qmail currently gives me. I was simply curious and the best place to ask is those that maintain the packages. Not on the expert list I'm not asking how to set anything up just if this as taken care of. I'm so out of touch with anything postfix that I would not even know it you guys considered this a problem or not. Thanks for the reply. > > > >
