Progress is progressing.

How close to done? Hard to say. I never know until it's done.

I would really look forward to this. I've been running my own mail server 
for over two decades. First with qmail, but the larger latter half with 
postfix. It's running pretty well, but there are still aspects that could 
be sharpened up, or configurations that I blindly relied on tutorials for 
without a full understanding of what is happening.


Before I reluctantly moved to Debian, your multiple editions of your 
FreeBSD book was my bible for years. Each edition was written excellently, 
without any sense of 'RTFM', and had a very human element (including 
humor). Your writing style makes it so painless to follow and truly learn 
the techniques.


I got to meet you some time ago at NYC*BSDcon and confirmed that you were 
just as cool as you came off in your writing.

The books Michael writes are little gems, nice to read, often funny,
always "to-the-point" and not expensive. This might be his most
important (technical) book.

Michael is self-publishing his books, and he collects sponsorship
money to be able to write this (and more) books. Please read Chapter 0
and consider sponsoring this new book:
