JN> Which mail software package is the recommended one to use with Debian JN> today? If I'm not mistaking now by default Debian tries to install exim. I nether tried it - I always install on all my boxes postfix. It is very stable, secure MTA. It is also very easy to configure. Probably another good choice is qmail. Many people fill very happy using it. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Ilya Martynov (http://martynov.org/) | | GnuPG 1024D/323BDEE6 D7F7 561E 4C1D 8A15 8E80 E4AE BE1A 53EB 323B DEE6 | | AGAVA Software Company (http://www.agava.com/) | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
