I don't have a dev box for the mail servers. I might be able to get away with doing this on the internal server during off hours, but I wouldn't want to do it on the outside server, which is used by a few of our clients. I think I'm going to have to make a VM for this. Actually, I'm going to have to make two since the two servers are running different OS versions and one is 32-bit and the other is 64-bit. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list courier-users@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
