I'd like access from standard email clients but would also like to be able to ssh into a local box and read mail via a character terminal. I have an OpenVMS and Linux server available to serve. Thanks, Mark. I used OpenVMS for about 10 years at home for an email server. I started with a AlphaStation 200 4/233 and ended with an XP1000/667. I did run into one problem where some worthless SOB spoofed my domain for spamming and I got a *LOT* of bounces. The resulting DOS attack took the box down for a couple days. I think it was an AlphaStation 600/433au at the time. The only reason I'm not currently running the system is that it costs to much to run a XP1000/667 with 6 10k SCSI drives 24x7, and since buying a house, I've not sorted out cooling. I've been thinking about bringing an AlphaStation 200 4/233 back online for this and a couple other things that I need VMS for. It is driving me crazy not having my own VMS system running.
