Felix,
Thank you very much for your very polite reply. I have been a Windows user
for the past 6 years and an Exchange admin for 3 years. The reason why I am
planning to migrate to linux is because it is free, very stable, and most
importantly, lists/communities (i.e. gurus like you) like this exists to
help newbies like me.
Since you are very knowledgeable with MTAs/Qmail, please feel free to block
all postings coming from me so as not to make your bad day even worse with
my very basic qustions.

If you don't know that, you should not be running any MTA.
If you can't find that out yourself, you should not be running any server.
No, not even a Quake server.
Hire someone who knows what he is doing and get him to do it for you.
