:). Ok, where do you guys live? Actually, the goal for the first year is
37K accounts. Please take a look at www.bluetail.com and
www.mailstudio.com, those two look interesting.

That works out okay because if Dan gets this ISP with 100k accounts to
hire me or George (sounds like they need both of us) he gets to bill them
for his help in finding the right people. I think it would be wise to
spend a few thousand dollars now getting answers that will keep you from
losing your ass later on.

If it was just something that a debian user was trying to do with a modem
and a 386 I might give him free advice and a 486.

So far you've recommended sendmail and exim as servers. What about web
clients? Any ideas?
