As great as Qmail is made out to be, you'll probably find life with Courier to be much more pleasant: http://www.courier-mta.org/ You can think of Courier as a Qmail that's actually maintained. If you use Qmail, you're likely to use Courier's IMAP and POP servers as well... Using the Courier MTA instead of Qmail just means less configuration for some items. Most of the MTA configuration is very similar between Qmail and Courier. > If I do that, what happens to the email as it passes thru the open relay? > Does it manipulate the headers at all? Sendmail won't be an "open" relay if you configure it properly. Steve's instructions look right for that. Sendmail will add a Recieved header, but should otherwise leave them alone. > I would like my qmail server to act as if it were a real public mail server. There's nothing that differentiates a mail server in a private network from a "real" public mail server. They both are going to receive and process messages over SMTP. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
