Using vmailmgr for virtual domains takes a bit of getting used too, but there is a very nice web based interface for the qmail/vmailmgr solution.

Disadvantages? Maybe just adapting to a new way of doing things (qmail is different in design to Sendmail). I've migrated from Sendmail to qmail in the past and quite painlessly at that. For some reason, I feel more secure running qmail, and tend to trust it more to do its job round the clock without any interruption. I have a qmail server that been running continuously for almost 300 days now, without any downtime... -Martin > Any advantages/disadvantages in using Qmail instead of Sendmail? > > Thanks much, > > Andy Myers > Orlando, FL USA > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
