Yer right, exactly for its RELIABILITY and all other *.LITIES :-). Most ISPs
prefer to use a *nixes, d kasi kaya ng m$oft ang alam mo na .....
Another thing is you can fill the ocean with its nifty features. Like what
I'm doing now, I have set up an antivirus on the postfix server
(relay-server). I'm using amavis-perl. Incoming mails with attachment aren't
scanned and delivered to amavis. That's what I'm trying to troubleshoot now.
Outgoing mails with attachments are OK. Amavis and Sophos can detect the
virus and inform the sender. Isn't it cool? Plus the header_checks, WOW!!!
Linux is fantasic! I love this OS.
