Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web.

Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

than i *could* say "postfix is a no-go" because i had lost emails with postfix, but i don´t.
i should mention that this happened on a system "without mailscanner"

amavisd-new, OTOH, works with all the MTAs in fedora.


amavisd-new    or do you mean
amavis, amavisd, amavis-ng  ?

I use mailscanner with postfix and have not lost any mails. how exactly are you losing the mail?
I'm not, because I don't use it. How do you know you haven't lost mails,
though? ;-)

you don´t use it but you know that this is the case?
i am sure you have heard about all the bugs in fedora, is fedora a "no-go" too ?

at least for sendmail/mailscanner i can *assure* you that i have lost absolutely no mail.

for postfix:
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/postfix.shtml
afair  exists a patch for the last beta.

At any rate, look through the postfix archives. Wietse rants periodically
about how / why mailscanner isn't safe with Postfix.


Earlier this month he posted a long list of how it would need to be 
re-architected to work
safely....

for  postfix or mailscanner ;-)

additional he could perhaps send this "long list" to  "julian field"
