So, I have some question hope you can help. 1. Does it mean I can only use one mail server,received & send at same time, the other is for backup only? 2. If not, how to defined more than one mail server to run at same time, AND all users can defined ONLY ONE name in mail box preference e.g users filled in netscape, mail.example.com at mail box name field. mail IN CNAME mx1.example.com IN CNAME mx2.example.com Is it OK? they can dynamic received and send mail, or my concept is wrong? 3. beside, any suggestion on pop3 program? do you think there are other one run on FreeBSD that better than qpopper?
