Exim (in my experience): * is easier to configure * is much more flexible > it looks to me as if exim is a newcomer and The other way around actually - Exim 1.x easily dates back to 1996 and (in my understanding) is derived from another MTA (smail, to be precise) that dates back to the late 1980s or the eary 1990s. Postfix, in comparison, didn't even see the light of day (outside of IBM, that is) until eary 1998 :) > in as such, i don't see how it can possibly get close to postfix, > which is excellent!!! It's been my experience that exim handily beats postfix, especially in the ways you can mix & match database & directory service lookups. But yes, postfix is very nice :) By my count it's light-years ahead of the (non-exim/non-postfix) competition (aka sendmail & qmail). > i would be happy to provide you with a dynamic dns name and mail > exchange relay; that plus ETRN solves my troubles with dynamic IP > connections... Fetchmail works wonders in such situations. There's good, old-fashioned UUCP as well :) - -- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Brutsche [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG fingerprint: 9BF9 D84C 37D0 4FA7 1F2D 7E5E FD94 D264 50DE 1CFC GPG key id: 50DE1CFC GPG public key: http://tux.creighton.edu/~pbrutsch/gpg-public-key.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine iD8DBQE7Pn9e/ZTSZFDeHPwRAoW4AJ9b2CDi7ge+c1BeDCQUswG4sS97TgCdHCRP 3ffLdq5r53i5qQZS2DiSRJs= =cP95 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
