Go to DJB's site, or "life with qmail", or www.postfix.org, and read away. However, you could also start with: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mail- using.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html ...then "cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix" (or /usr/ports/mail/qmail) and "make install". > I am wondering why we get a lot more varieties on > Linux solutions compared to FreeBSD.

There is nothing wrong with people trying and experimenting with lots of different approaches, but consistency has its own value. -- -Chuck
