A server that is not running incurs no overhead. On a home pc the MTA is not running 99.9% of the time. Even when it does run it uses negligible resources. It is simple to configure an MTA to forward to an ISP's smarthost and no administration is requireed. > I've looked through the scripts included in the reportbug package, but > I'm not nearly coder enough to make sense of it all to figure out how it > sends out the report via the ISP's server, that's all I'm looking to do. It has a built-in MTA. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
