Hello. I live in Alaska, and I vote for whoever makes sense, but like Democrats. We have been over the last 30 years, getting warmer weather every year. In 1978, I remember that was first year in memory when it rained in January. We saw so much rain last winter, 2005-2006, that we lost all our snow covering more than once for weeks during the period from January through April. We typically have snow from Halloween through March. So all in, I think the weather is changing, the plants are changing as it's warmer longer even on the tundra. So make your own conclusions.
It depends on which way you look at the books. AT&T has not been scrutiny like WorldCom so it's a relative statement. AT&T has been working hard on some good projects and many big customers are waiting for new services.
Try Barracuda Networks for some real SA power. We run a BN 300 and have reduced Spam/Virus problems to nothing. I wish I had this for the last couple years.
Yes, we have run Postfix and Sendmail in the past and since moving to qmail, our systems have been solid. Bullet proof. Postfix is bloated in size for the first comparison to qmail. The list goes on.
See http://www.geocities.com/mailsoftware42/ for a detailed comparison of MTA's.
Have you looked at Mikrotik ? Not exactly the same by imagination but that's what I like. Very robust. Head to this link: http://www.mikrotik.com/download.html
What many folks don't know is that there is a new standard that has finally been approved for the important 2-11 GHz frequency bands, including licensed and unlicensed spectrum allocations - 802.16a. Huh? This is a specification developed under the auspices of the IEEE, the same group that guides the 802.11 standards. 802.11x are standards for Wireless LOCAL Area Networks (WLAN). 802.16a is that standard for Wireless METRO Area Networks (WMAN or WirelessMAN).
What is the "problem" with 802.11? The greatest problem is that it was designed for relatively short distances of about 300 feet in doors (if you are lucky) and 1,200 feet out of doors. While 802.11 gear can be pushed into service over longer links, even up to several miles, it was not designed from the ground up to be used for such distances. It also was not designed to serve a large number of users. WirelessMAN, on the other hand, was designed from the "ground up" specifically to tackle the tough requirements of making wireless broadband work over longer distances and through more difficult environments, such as heavily wooded areas. With 802.16a systems can be devised that get around many of the line of sight problems of older systems. The most important thing about WirelessMAN is the simple fact that it is a standard that is recognized by the IEEE in conjunction with other world wide authorization bodies. Along with the standard, a compliance testing group has been established, similar to 802.11, to make sure that the basic air interface standards are met between the various equipment suppliers. With 802.16a there will be core air interface standards compatibility but individual vendors will go beyond that to offer systems with added features and capabilities.
What does this mean to users (ergo 'market momentum')? It means that users will be able to get WBB that operates over entire cities or large geographic area, such a an entire highway corridor. It will be like WLAN but able to be used at distances up to several miles. "Great, where can I buy it today?" How this rolls out into the marketplace is a huge topic of discussion. While a lot remains to be seen and will be shaped by many complex forces, including the role of merchant chip suppliers similar to those supplying parts for WLAN devices, some movement is already under way that will shape the early going.
I wholehearted disagree with your statement. Obviously there is room to make qmail better, but the code is solid, unlike sendmail, postfix, etc.
Plenty of zero light from man up here. Jump on a plane and come on up, the Polar Bears stalk people without hesitation. :-)
So bring your camera.
Then I wonder why anyone who sees this would want to have GMAIL?
-Dee
Go ahead and post your facts supporting MS then.
Well I decided to use a different MTA with replacing Exchange, Kerio Mail Server. While no MTA is perfect, this one suits me just fine.
Precisely why I never buy/use MS any more.

I just bought one of Dual 2.16 GHz Inetl Core Duo units.
Must say I like it and using it full time now.
Cheers,

I just moved from Kubuntu to OSX, not looking back either. Much better.
Seems it's time for dumping # Sendmail 8.13.4, with libmilter :-)
and Bind 9.3.1 (+ patches) for qmail and djbdns
-Dee
Seems none of these are are available for Debian?
I disagree. qmail is the best MTA IMHO. djbdns is also the best in DNS/dnscache/rbldns/walldns/etc.
It depends on which way you look at the books. AT&T has not been scrutiny like WorldCom so it's a relative statement. AT&T has been working hard on some good projects and many big customers are waiting for new services.
Screw RH finally. Debian works on our hardware just fine and then there is always SuSE.

I'll stick with my Barracuda Firewall. The ability to have some levers to do what is neccesary and with elagence is pricelss.

Probably more FreeBSD/OpenBSD also, so no big deal, right ?
Russ is correct, if you are not using djbdns, you should. The patch will also make surfing continue without a stupid URL showing up when you mis-type.
Because you obviously don't have a legal background and know the full story.
We run qmail and have not suffered a bit w/Sobig.F
Maybe some explanation of what syptoms you see ?

We use Debian/qmail/Bind/Apache/Atmail and it works great. No need for Oracle though.

You can download a free trial.
Have fun.
Wow, you must be one those customers that has no clue :-)
