This one looks great, but like you said , its far from being free... pluis I
want to run my mail server on a P200, with a 5 gig hard drive and 64 mb of
ram... any other ideas ?

Why wouldn' t you just stick with postfix through using mandrake.

I think it is just super easy.

I'm running a home gateway on a P33 with a 2 GB drive, and my choice was
e-smith server v.5.0, from http://www.e-smith.org. It's a quick, painless
install, so long as you use one hard drive.

Mandrake is on my workstation desktop but I think it's overkill for the
mail/web server.
