It is easier to configure, and it is command-libe compatible with sendmail. So, it can be used as a sendmail replacement (from a command-line invocation POV). It also has a GUI to monitor the mail queue and allow you to deal with messages as is appropriate. I also user Majordomo with it. Keep in mind that if you will be running any anti-spam or -viri doodads, then you may need to be running sendmail. Depends on the doodad. But most seem to target sendmail. If you plan on doing any imap stuff, then you need to be sure that the mailer stores files in a way that the imap software can use. I have not yet found an imap server that will server up exim's files. Of course, I have not looked very hard (yet). > > On Tue, 4 Jun 2002, Myles Green wrote: > > > I find myself needing to set up a mail server for multiple (remote) > > users and was wondering what package(s) might be best.
