It might be good if we would replace smail in hamm with exim. Exim should be the standard mailer for hamm:
- Exim is based on the same concepts as smail. - It is developed with newer concepts in mind - Exim is scalable from running from inetd to delivering hundredths of thousands of messages a day - Exim has just one configuration file. eximconfig is the old smailconfig script reworked. It is extremly easy to set up. - Active development is going on. - Support for a variety of mailbox formats including Maildir. - Has X interface - Well written documentation I really have not seen an easier to configure mailer and also I am surprised about the scalability. I never understood exactly how to configure smail, but exim no problem. I am running exim on most of my Debian Servers. Also we might think about replacing lilo with chos as the standard boot loader from harddisk. lilo always is a difficulty for newbies, chos offers: - Menudriven Boot Loader (Cryptic Prompt only on demand) - Highly Customizable Color Menus. - Simple configuration in passwd style file /etc/chos.conf --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
