Yes, I agree that normally Gentoo has quite new packages, but some packages - like courier - lag somewhat behind. E.g. these are the "stable" version in portage at the moment: mail-mta/courier0.75.0 (current is 0.76.3) net-libs/courier-authlib0.66.4 (@ current) net-libs/courier-unicode1.3 (current is 1.4) net-mail/courier-imap 4.16.2 (current is 4.17.2) -- D/\N -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ courier-users mailing list courier-users@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

I wonder here - gentoo is rolling distro, so it's expected to have very new versions of packages. However, the best distro is the one you can support as best. any unix compatible system should work OK. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.

Thanks for the feedback Sam. I think I'll give CentOS a try. -- D/\N -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ courier-users mailing list courier-users@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users

[courier-users] Preferred OS for Courier mail server
Hallo, I am planning to setup a new Courier mail server and I was just wondering what is the preferred OS/distribution for a Courier install. Today I am using Gentoo (but the package in Gentoo is not really up to date).
