Thanks for the speedy response!
Yes. I've basically got a mail hub which also has the users home dirs on it, so
all internal email goes to it and procmail processes their emails. The mail
hub also passes any external mail to another mail server for external delivery.
I've had endless trouble with sendmail since Sun went to 8.8.x and changed from
sendmail.cf to using m4, so having heard good things about Qmail, I thought I'd
give it a try.
Thanks again.
