[plug] sendmail...?

[Paul Dean]

MMmm hey John,

Why don't you try and set up you winblows box with Linux and then you can 
run that with Squid and Sendmail and the likes....
A lot more stable and secure for you too..

This is what I do at home ...
workstation: RH 6.2, X, and blah....
server: RH 6.2, Sendmail, Fetchmail, Squid, and blah...
