I run my own linux firewall, but I can understand why some folks prefer to by an appliance. I host my mail server off-site, but have done the "studly mail admin" bit as well. Just a question of trade-offs for a home/hobby system, and how much time you want to spend on it.
Bob - I've been planning on replacing sendmail (which I'm not using anyway) on my rh8 system with tcpserver/qmail, in an attempt to divorce myself from my vhost which I no longer use for vhosting, but still get all my email through (and pay $20/m for!). I'm running dynamic over cable using everydns, btw. -- I assume you might have the same general advice for me... [Again, if there's anyone near Sutton who feels like stopping by and putting me out of my "misery", you're welcome to do so...] Pete
