Personally, if forced to run Exchange, I'd probally set up something similar. Then again, I threatened to quit in the middle of my documentation project when sales started asking about Exchange. Amazing how fast they'll sing a different tune... :) Anyway, our mail server here has gotten 10 of these so far. All of them have been shoved off to /var/spool/mail/security and haven't been delivered. Pretty darn slick if you ask me. If you are in a situation where you have to run Exchange, I'd definitly be looking into the sendmail relay type soultion. (But really, use postfix or something instead of sendmail.) Probally a decent compromise. -- Andy Zbikowski, Sys Admin | (WEB) http://www.ltiflex.com LTI Flexible Products, Inc. | (PH) 763-428-9119 (EX) 132 21801 Industrial Blvd | (FX) 763-428-9126 Rogers, MN 55374 | (PCS) 612-306-6055 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
