Well, 10 Things to configure is not "zero", isn't it? Maybe the Debian developers did a good job to write a script and set up your answers as config file options. They've chosen exim4 to write this for. Technically, I think the work should be kind of equal to do this setup with exim4 or with courier. If you relay on debian's script, okay, courier is out beacuse they've not written this script for courier. > I lookup the http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html - I have seen it but > it was quite terrify - work for days and continouse maintenance. Setting up a courier smarthost like you did it with exim took me about an hour or so (made a stupid mistake, that costs time) a few weeks ago. If you, as a beginner, have to read the docs twice, let it be 5 hours of work. But it's not "work for days". Contionus maintainance (say: security upgrades) should be the basic work for all applications if you run anything connected to the internet. If you don't want that, you'd better leave it. regards, Bernd -- In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different. - Larry McVoy
