Well... it's on a T1 right now... should be a T3 soon... I'll hafta get the
status on that.  If that gets delayed much longer I need to relocate anyway...

I was hoping you'd say that :)  I'm very comfortable with Qmail, so I'll fire it
up and disable sendmail.

I can't imagine... Qmail is pretty robust.  Also, I installed the dot-forward
option into this qmail install so people can still use the standard .forward
files there used to with sendmail... or they can use the .qmail and .qmail-*
files which are very cool.
