Since nobody else so far has mentioned exim - that's what I use on my mail servers (FreeBSD and OpenBSD). On FreeBSD and elsewhere it's an easy install from ports, and it comes with a fairly human-readable configuration file which comes out of the default install fairly well commented. If you read and follow the port's onscreen directions, you'll end up with a fairly good spam+worm filtering setup for your mail as well. IME a low-maintainence, high-reliability option. > Furthermore, can someone recommend a decent POP3 and IMAP server? There are several good ones in ports. imap-uw is very easy to set up. -- Peter N.
