CS degree from before the 'Net, missed the 'Net programming on toy OS's (CP/M, MSDOS, etc.), and decided to learn IP networking when I retired. Rented a domain and a T1, bought a couple servers, a router, and several pounds of O'Reilly books (and one on Postfix), installed Linux, and started typing. Downhill ever since :-) Managing Postfix is more a recreational duty that I fell into by choice. Postfix is a delightful piece of software. -- Glenn English
