Thanks for the info 300c_pilot...

You said, "spamassassin, procmail, dovecot and postfix for your email "

I am going to look at all of them... so I guess they all basically run together as a complete system?

I am have some about qmail and after researching I found out what you said, it is made for a larger system to do a lot of accounts and emails.

I only need one that I can get 4 account for - (Me, wife, and 2 kids) and it will be light enough to run on my compaq p133mhz laptop..

I got Apache and MySQL (My website and forum) setup on it and it works well because DSL has such a small footprint. BUt just need the email server thing and I will be done with it.... so I can shutdown my garage sever(Running my email, web, forum, DB) because summer is coming and my garage gets to hot.

I will reseach the product you posted...thanks again for the info.

They will all work together well and there is a lot of doc's out there to help with setup.
Smooth flights...

phpBB is a freeware forum developed in PHP of course...

I did get it running. It is running PHP on the front end and MySQL db on the back. It runs great.

I am trying to make postfix now and getting a error saying I am missing a db.h file.

Oh well... it is working... the PHPBB and MySQL with APACHE anyway.
