Why not use FETCHMAIL to snag the mail for everyone and toss it to their accounts on the linux box, then the incoming mail can be run through PROCMAIL and milter and SpamAssassin, then have all the boxes on the lan access the mail via either IMAP or POP3 from the linux box...? And you can set up all the outbound SMTP to run through that same linux box so that it can be scanned with like CLAMAV on it's way out...ay? -- Thu Jul 17 13:25:00 EST 2003 13:25:00 up 3 days, 5:28, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.07 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * The sight of death frightens them [Earthers]. -- Kras the Klingon, "Friday's Child", stardate 3497.2
