I also have the O'Reilly Qmail book. Actually, I got qmail running fairly quickly using the procedures in the O'Reilly book. Unfortunately, it died and I then spent about 10 hours trying to figure out what the problem was. Well, I never did figure it out and I'm not ashamed to say that I've given up trying. Life's too short. I'm outsourcing the problem to a email service provider. I realized that running an email server properly is a full time job, and I already have 14 full time jobs. Eventually, you just have to say "Enough!" and let someone else handle some of the work. I've been hoping to have something useful to contribute to this forum. That's a lesson well worth passing on, I think! -- John
