FWIW, my server is a Cobalt Qube 3 Pro, 450Mhz. I would think that's decent, but then, that's all based on perspective. It doesn't do much but mail and an occasional FTP. Looks like I should understand spamc/spamd. Invoking daemons is still uncharted territory for me, so if someone has a reccomended source for me to get up to speed on this topic, I'd love to read it. I'm a little fuzzy on the "Then, configure your system to run spamd in the background," part of the instructions. It's written with the assumption I know how to do that, but I don't, yet.
