I would also like to know, what kind of shareware I would have to install. It is possible, but that is _not_ a lot of disk space. You could do a minimal version of FreeBSD, but you'd already have very little space left. You'd probably want to add a POP and possibly an IMAP server if people will be pulling mail off to PCs. You'll have little space for storing user mail or swap (if you got hit with a 43 MB file like my mail server did the other day, you'd have problems ;). That is also the bare minimum amount of RAM. To be honest, I think it'd be cheaper to upgrade or use another machine rather than put all of the time and effort needed into getting things to work under those constraints. BTW, the machine _is_ a 386 or better, right? And I thought my PentiumPro with 24 MB RAM and a 1 GB disk was a minimal mailserver... > Please give me an answer on qj@box43.gnet.pl You should put this in your 'Reply-To' if you want mail to go there. -- Crist J.
