Its a risk, not because of Courier but because you are not yet familiar with the software. The alternative would be Postfix with SASL2/mySQL, but this only gives you SMTP, its not much easier than courier-mta to maintain, lacks DSN and a few other goodies. And you still need imap, pop3, webmail and authlib from courier which makes the setup definitely more challenging. (actually I am currently setting up such a beast, because the managing software and the antivirus only knows about postfix and I dont want to run both mta's on the same box...) Set up a testbox for a few weeks first. Roland ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
