Hello,
First message here. 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.
