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.
