Thanks a lot for all your suggestions! I will probably still start
from exim but at least I know now that the choice is not that
critical, especially for a small home server.
Thanks again,

as is postfix. I think its mostly a matter of
preference but I havent delved into Exim too much. Personally I run
Postfix and Dovecot for my mail server setup. Roundcube does a nice job
in providing a front end on the web for Dovecot.

Aaron,
First question you might want to answer is can I solve the relaying
problem on the system I have now? Certainly "SCO Unix" is ugly to me,
but if it is working and your time is as limited as the rest you might be
best to upgrade to the lastest version of Sendmail. It not only fixes the

I am setting up freebsd as an incoming mail server running sendmail. Is there
documentation to do this and make sure i do this right?? I am having problems with
people relaying through my existing mail server running sco unix and sendmail. Please
