This isn't a problem for FreeBSD. The system comes configured for SMTP. Install 'popper' to get POP3. I believe there is a combination IMAP/POP3 daemon but the name escapes me. No nice web configurator, but no Web security headaches. An autoresponder is a .forward away. You can also do virutal domains by modifying the Cw entry in /etc/sysconfig and adding the necessary MX entries. > Thanks for the advice.
