   That it is!  I forwarded it to the guy who I railroaded...errr... got
to volunteer to do a presentation for our upcoming LUG meeting on
installing an MTA then configuring it to work with one or more of the many
spam filtering programs.  We'll see if it gets him over the hurdles
without catching anything delicate as he goes over the bars.

   So then I set off to try this "How To" myself.  Got as far as breaking
sendmail :(   Now it coughs and chokes and blows chunks before finally
getting a wedgie.  Oh well.. Gives me something to debug tonight.
