Thanks for the heads-up. I'm going to give it a go and see what it's
like now. I think I'll be heading into it with a little more
trepidation now.

My main reason for going for courier is that it supports looking up mail
accounts and routing information from LDAP for both SMTP, POP and IMAP.
As I'm comfortable with using/programming/scripting against LDAP and
don't like the idea of creating hundreds of user accounts on the box, I
thought I'd look into it. It appears to be the only POP server that
supports LDAP unless using a patch against cyrus or something similar.

Thanks again.

Darran.
