Any host can install any IMAP server they wish. There is no correlation to MTA using a specific IMAP server.

As you know, you can build any MTA on any distro, or use a port on *BSD, and a few have Exim included as an alternative out-of-the-box selection. On my *n.x boxes, I don't use any of the above, but build qmail (which you will never see included in a distro) :)) -- Gary ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.61.11 (Echo) | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
