&gt;&gt;I have a friend doing doctoral work in interactive web development and human 
&gt;&gt;interface design. At one point I helped him set up a Linux / Apache web 
&gt;&gt;server for posting VRML projects created by he and his students.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;His studies have recently necessitated a move to Baltimore. For some odd 
&gt;&gt;reason his department there couldn't provide him with an email account. He 
&gt;&gt;made the mistake of complaining about that as being somewhat aburd. Now they 
&gt;&gt;want him to set up a mail server for the department... for cheap or for free, 
&gt;&gt;of course...   to live alongside their Apache web server, which is 
&gt;&gt;unfortunately running on an eXcrement Pile box. The mail server, however, can 
&gt;&gt;be a seperate Linux box if that's the way he wants to get it done.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;This person is NOT a unix savvy command line, script config kind of guy, so 
&gt;&gt;Sendmail is probably not a solution. We've had a suggestion of qmail, but I 
&gt;&gt;wanted to ask the list if there are other email server options we should look 
&gt;&gt;into, keeping in mind that ease of configuration and maintenane are the 
&gt;&gt;important factors.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Thanks for any ideas!
&gt;&gt;peace
