when you get them all up and running, wouldn't you love to help the next five hundred with just a few hours' worth of effort? you and your cohorts have probably been pulling your hair out, but if you'd have just found a simple intro to some of the common situations, it'd save you tons of frustration! so write up your exim setup experience and post it to our newbieDoc area at http://www.eGroups.com/files/newbieDoc so that next week's newbies won't have to pull all their hair out, too. -- There are only two places in the world where time takes precedence over the job to be done.
