    Just re-run the install.sh, when you answer the questions
differently, it'll write a new conf.  For reasons I don't
understand if I don't leave ports 25 and 110 open I can't receive
mail.  So they're open, but I never connect as other than user so
I'm not worring about it.  Prob'ly has somethin to do with my ISP.
