De-centralizing mail like that is asking for trouble, it's probably better to add mail users to the FreeBSD box and install a pop3 or imap server, setup an MX record for the FreeBSD so people send mail to it. You can find 3rd party pop and imap servers in /usr/ports/mail, the most simple configuration is just installing /usr/ports/mail/popper and telling users to check email off of the FreeBSD machine. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
