Hi Gary, Just set up the same thing a couple weeks ago. Everything is working great.
My configuration is: Redhat 9.0 Sendmail Mailscanner Spamassassin Clamav Webmin for some server management but mostly use Putty from my NT 4.0 workstation For stats I just installed mailscanner-mrtg and it does a nice job. Install and setup was fairly straight forward and this was only my second *nix box. If you need details feel free to email me off list. Regards, Ken Ken Goods Network Administrator MIS Dept.
