Actually, I now have postfix/amavis/clamd/spamassassin working fine. But the setup was several orders of magnitude more complicated than setting up sendmail/procmail/spamassassin . This is confirmed in my mind by the suggestions I received - someone specified 2 books on Postfix I should read, someone else advised me to pay someone to set it up. Obviously the postfix.org documentation is not directed at those - like me - trying to set up a simple home-network. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
