Last year i converted a postfix only platform, that was supporting a few hundred thousand mailboxes, to Exim and have never looked back since. It required investigating a lot of the postfix functions/settings and the policy daemon that was been used to an Exim only solution, but i wouldnt say I am a postfix expert. If someone else starts the basis of something I will definitely help contribute. .warren -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
