Harold, I am pretty much there already – just need to find the time to get it done. I already have a CentOS minimal install VM ready to go and need to pick a BSD flavor and download it.

Personally, I am running all mail servers with exim4u on FreeBSD. Maybe you should just give it a shot and install it as trying exim4u gives you more information and “feeling” than all discussion… installing is not that much work.

I have been a CentOS fan for many years, essentially since I moved off of SCO Linux and Solaris(for SPARC). But now with the implementation of system and its pervasity, I have been looking at/condsidering other OS’es. BSD and Gentoo are the primary two. For systemd, most if not all of the mainstream linuxi are already on systemd. Here are a couple of links for some systemd background: http://0pointer.de/public/gnomeasia2014.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd http://riaschissl.bestsolution.at/2015/07/systemd-the-linux-dilemma-and-why-... Probably best to not bring up opinions on system. It has and can cause irate comments. What OS are most people running for vexim and exim4u?

I am looking to get off of qmailtoaster (been running it for many, many years) since even it is not well maintained any more. I am looking at either postfix or exim, and an easy tool to manage them (limited free time=hobby business). I ran across exim4u and it looks like it might fit the bill. Other platforms I am looking at are ISPConfig and BlueOnyx (yes, I know, sendmail), Xeams, Virtualmin. I know all of those are not email only, but I hope I can just ignore the other portions of those application stacks. I do like that exim4U is first for email, exactly what I want/need. I do have a couple questions: 1. Is it maintained and being further developed? I am not concerned if it is slow development, but what exists should be relatively solid. 2. Will it run on CentOS7 or other systemd platforms? Seems they are all pretty much going that way unfortunately. I don't know what systemd is, but I will google. I use FreeBSD mostly. Exim runs on Ubuntu. However, Exim4U requires just php+apache+mysql IIRC. If those are installable on a systemd OS, then it will run. Exim as an MTA should run on all *nix OS IIRC. So I guess you have no problem ahead with Exim4U. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 "Oh, the cruft."
