i can't speak for roger but personally i like knowing that when someone says they've sent us an email and i'm asked if it's arrived that i can look in my maillog and _know_ if it's touched my network server or not and not have to wonder if it's stuck on some third party box because they do our virus/spam filtering and happen to have a bit of a backlog.
ditto outgoing mail.. if it's left my server it's left my company.. no need to worry if it's queued on some third parties server. i wouldn't say i'm a control freak, i just like to be able to know what's happening rather than make assumptions about what's happening somewhere beyond my control. regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.
