But it's also new and not all-there yet. When things don't work you're SOL. When you want to leave the beaten path, ditto. I'm booting it up in combination with postfix and virtual users in the uber-user's Maildir. It can be done, but... Same goes for the SSL, almost no problems <g>. Still, it has a clean slate compared to WU and feels good. Also it is quite security concious, which is always nice. But it is still young and I've yet to see a 'HOWTO' but for the INSTALL file. There's a dearth of information that almost entices one to look into the source <g>. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.
