Of course we didn't have to JL> filter out as much spam and virii in those days. Oh, I agree that centralized mail has its advantages. Many places want to have their own physical box, for whatever reason... go figure. IMHO, the single biggest advantage to a local machine is sending intraoffice email without chewing up WAN bandwidth. Beyond that, it's much easier centralizing things. JL> And we've grown a lot since then <smile>.
