Thanks Glen but doing that in a remote computer is askin for trouble and I can't step to the risk of having that computer trashed (fixing it would cost almost as much as renting a new one). Anyway in the forums somebody gave me this: ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/i386/7.0-RELEASE/packages/All The problem now is that the package I need is way too old. Let's see if i can work out to fix that. Problem is it uses perl and perl is used by another package the hosting company installed that depends on it. And that I really have 0 experience with it so reinstalling a new one means downtime. I'll try to modify dkimproxy and see what happens. So far the newer version installed with warnings but doesn't even start.
