You'll be astounded > when you see how many configuration options postfix has...... For that reason, you may want to consider qmail. It doesn't have a ton of configuration options.

Postfix shines there, but wasn't available when I did the conversion. http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
