[NBLUG/talk] Sendmail/Postfix/qpoper

[Mark Street]

Ah, hell.  I'll bite.  Any of them will do the job.

qmail, vpop, etc., etc. etc. whatever you want to plug onto the end of it.

You might find this script/installer useful... ; )

I have installed qmail both ways, the installer works quite well.... but you 
do need to lose a bit of hair installing/patching/hacking qmail from source 
at least once.

also I like my postfix, amavisd-new, spam assassin, clamav setup too.

Utilize your resources Walter.....  google is your friend... remember Life 
with Qmail?

keywords, qmail postfix exim amavisd-new clamav vpop

Heck, I believe there even Webmin(yuck) modules for qmail admin and vpop.

Laughter.....
