Eric, I have to agree with you: When I installed qmail for the 1st time I had a basic system up and running in less than a day, using nothing but the docs that came with the source But it gets more difficult if you want to use qmail in a professional manner like running it supervised, analyze the logs etc. Then again this is true for every complex system, in computing or elsewhere. But at least Brad saw the point I wanted to make, I guess. A suggestion for those writing a qmail guide: There must be numerous sites like us putting it to good use just as a relay because of its security. I'd happily contribute the necessary steps to accomplish this relatively simple setup. Cheers Ralf
