Thanks Noel.

Would you be able to point me to a link that describes concisely
how to compile postfix with SASL support ?
If I don't use SASL, can I substitute with plain authentication (say Unix
/etc/passwd ?)  to keep it simple & how do I go about setting this?

So I just erase this line completely from main.cf ?

What's the command to verify if "mutt" is installed on my server?
If it's not, where can I download it (for RHES 4.x).  Point me to a link
to install/configure it as well.
I plan to have several Unix accounts in my server to receive mails, so
I guess maildir is more suited in this case. Any link/doc on configuring
procmail will be appreciated
