Dear Edgar, Thank you so much for sharing your apps. Please excuse my ignorance but I need to enable httpd for these to work, correct? I will definitely check them out and most likely implement them.
Can anyone recommend a guide about how to build a backup mail server? I found a couple in the web, one among vultr.com documentation and another one from an OpenBSD guru using an older version. I am hoping to find a more refined guide similar to poolp/Gilles's. Thank you all again.
