It’s more a case of needing to make sure it handles folder creation and management right. At the moment the mail server won’t create folders, even with generic rights, on the first connection and I have to create each user manually. Then again, this server is sunsetting soon but not until I have the replacement box running


Now that I send this message it took upgrading to fBSD 10.0-RELEASE to get Postfix to even compile correctly (it was barfing on a user ID that supposedly existed but wasn’t really there previously).
