I should have clarified. I will be doing mail just for myself. I send
and receive about 40 messages a day.

Bandwidth is plenty. My questions deal mainly with getting such a system
setup. If I was running a server for a large organization, I certainly
would care about bandwidth.

I am thinking of using P3 450 with 384 MB. That should probably be
enough.

What operating system is best for graylisting?

feet and gives us a cue as to the way we should go. Our part is to
carry on from there, to carry this spirit which comes to us at this
season into the rest of the year. Then it may be said of us, as Dickens
remarked of one of his characters, 'It was always said of him, that he
knew how to keep Christmas very well.'" --Edmund Opitz
