BTW, there was some resistance to people using Mandrake on the servers
on campus since there were no exim packages (even though I pointed the
rpmhelp ones out), since exim is the "understood" mail server here. One
of the bigger linux servers on campus has however been running Mandrake
for quite a while, after they found out Postfix is easy enough to configure.

Our server has of course been running postfix for a long time.
