I am a fan of exim as well, although that is because it is the default mailer for Debian. Since you are talking about a relatively small amount of email, any reasonable mail server will be fine. You should probably choose for ease. Exim and Postfix are both supposed to be pretty good in this regard. I generally recommend gently against Sendmail, although obviously it is a very capable server. Keeping up with security patches is particularly easy in Debian, and because they have a long release cycle, you don't have to do major upgrades all of the time. I can generally count on a 2-3yr supported time window from them. -- Don Bindner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----------------------------------------------------------------- To get off this list, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Subject: unsubscribe -----------------------------------------------------------------
