I'm currently running servers with sendmail, with exim, and with qmail. I'm not running servers with postfix, but I have set them up in the past. My selections are made for me because I using hosting Control Panels and I use what they come with. However, I'm one of those people who really likes qmail and finds it straightforward and easy to use (though I admit that in addition to Life with Qmail, I also bought (and read) the book written by the same author). However as you note, there is one problem... > On a separate point, note that Red Hat is unable to > distribute qmail due to DJB's licensing terms... I doubt you will > ever see Red Hat directly support qmail. Until I came across your post I was about to reply myself and point out that qmail is NOT open source. Anyone considering it should definitely read DJB's licensing terms before actually using it. See: "http://web.infoave.net/~dsill/lwq.html#license";. Jeff -- Jeff Lasman, nobaloney.net, P. O.
