I strongly believe in being nice to users - I think the day of the
"Geek as God" is almost over.
But hey, we're building a *mail server* here! I don't see this as
trivial matter, and so some level of difficulty can be expected and
R'ingTFM is not asking too much.
I sent an email to Dave awhile back, saying "we installed qmail,
vpopmail, sqwebmail, many virtual domains, moved a few over from
sendmail (phew) etc... and didn't have to post to list once. Did we do
something wrong?"
Besides, being called "terse, dense and frighteningly useful...and
annoyed" is the nicest compliment I've received in a loooong time... :)
