<br> I imagine it's easier to setup now than when I looked into it ages<br>and ages ago. ;-) It works very similar to Anomy (create a pipe<br>service in the <a href="http://master.cf">master.cf</a> file). It's the link between your antispam,
<br>antivirus and mail components. It *is* very very popular. I think<br>I've even seen some of those pre-fabbed mail gateway boxes online<br>using it.<br><br>G-<br><br>------------------------------------------------------------
