I have been reading about all the options, and come to thing that Dovecot is the way for me to go. I lack spare hardware, and I also am using OS X for deployment. The hardware issues can be solved, and if there is a ports version of dovecot, I should be able to get it up and running. EIMS has it's weaknesses and strong points. Out of the box, EIMS does it all, pop, smtp, and imap, greylist. The other options are to have to build up quite a system for each thing to work right. It will be a slow transition, but I do plan on making the change. I came here to see if there was a simple fix, which I am now learning this is a architectural issue in my current email server. -- Scott ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ----- squirrelmail-users mailing list Posting guidelines: http://squirrelmail.org/postingguidelines List address: squirrelmail-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx List archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user List info (subscribe/unsubscribe/change options): https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
