The users who are on this new server used to use pop before SMTP but that ended up being a real pain to get going for Dovecot. I just have a couple issues or could be non-issues to work out trying to get Sendmails SMTP AUTH to pass off spam to SpamAssassin without generating a authenication failure. Although it does appear to be handing off the spam to SA. At least, I'm seeing these errors in the maillog but also am seeing spam being caught. So like I said it could be a non-issue. FWIW: I'm using the Dovecot that comes packaged with CentOS 4.4 64 bit. -- -Doc Lincoln, NE. http://www.genealogyforyou.com/ http://www.cairnproductions.com/
