Hi David,
thanks for answering.
The problem is that I'm migrating a running server. My problems are:
- many domains already configured in the vpopmail DB, need to use those
users
- need to code a company policies using perl (as explained in my
previous email)
I think I can just plug sendmail in front of the running server and then
deliver
the email using smtp to localhost:26 where qmail can be running.
I'm thinking running sendmail and procmail in the same machine, diferent
ports.
Thanks
Oliver
