See e.g. > http://mathforum.org/~sasha/tech/sendmailvhosts.html Use 'virtual' for all users, local or not if Postfix is employed. It makes setting up the system a whole lot easier and potentially more secure. =20 > I haven't used dovecot, so I can't help you much with that.

I use it myself.

Unless there is some weird firewall, I don't see what the problem would be. =20 > Roland --=20 Gerard gerard@seibercom.net Falling in love makes smoking pot all day look like the ultimate in restraint.
