IMHO, if you are setting up SMTP for the first time ever and using Fedora Core, my inclination would be to point you in the direction of postifx rather than sendmail, but this is my personal bigotry at work <grin> for an IMAP server, Fedora comes with two very good ones. I have no idea if UW-IMAP is still part of the distro, but dovecot and cyrus both are. Of the two dovecot is significantly easier to setup (install it, a few simple edits and you're practially done) but if you want easily confiugurable filtering, perhaps cyrus will do for you - it supports sieve which can provide a web-based frontend to allow users to set up their own rules without too much admin inervention, see: http://sourceforge.net/projects/websieve procmail requires more work on your part (or your users have to write their own .procmailrc recipes) but works well (in fact, this is what I use) > So my question is this...
