I have seen similar reports from others using it to. As for the migration issues. They are not an issue. You place a separated MX server in front of your current sendmail machine. The separate server doesn't need to be anything special from what I have found. It just needs an excellent operating system FreeBSD with postfix installed and the IMgate mods Have a look at http://imgate.meiway.com Regards Tim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Len Conrad" To: Sent: Saturday, April 26, 2003 1:01 PM Subject: Re: Best Way Blocking Spams > > > What about your solutions ? > > RBL is not a very effective way to block.
