Their are a number ways to do what you are looking to do.  My first
question is this.
Is the Gentoo machine you are talking about the same as
think-electric.com or is that the dreamhost machine?  Do you have
control over the mail sever on your dreamhost system?  Are you looking
for some one to do some auditing of your systems?  I am able to work
on a contract basis to help you get done what you want done.
