Re: need someone to sell me their mail server for OpenBSD



sendmail 8.11.1 (shipped).  Bonus is getting TLS into it
so that other machines that speak it will encrypt the SMTP
conneciton.  Use the mc files (/usr/share/sendmail/cf/openbsd-proto.mc)
not the cf files for changes.  The cf files should be treated
as binaries.

Lots of info at sendmail.org and .net.  Runs around 70% of the
Internet facing mail servers.

Imap and stunnel are fine.  Fetchmail is useful.
I like cyrus imap and another commercial one, there
are others.
