Right. The answer for me, it is good for me but of course not some much obviouse to setup then exim4 on Debian. I should do some jb, but the result would be apropriate :) About the maintenance I do not mean only updates/upgrades - Debian do it very well, mostly automatic security updates are does. I mean about blacklists, filters and other stuff top be safe - that no one will use my small server as a spam spreading/colleting box.

Thanx Bernd

I hove my next questions will so quckly answered as this :)

Hi.

Setup exim4 as a smarthost using mta on Debian called as "zero setup". There is small shell/perl questionary ned to answer about ten questions.

Well, 10 Things to configure is not "zero", isn't it?

Maybe the Debian developers did a good job to write a script and set up your answers as config file options. They've chosen exim4 to write this for. Technically, I think the work should be kind of equal to do this setup with exim4 or with courier. If you relay on debian's script, okay, courier is out beacuse they've not written this script for courier.

I lookup the http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html - I have seen it but it was quite terrify - work for days and continouse maintenance.

Setting up a courier smarthost like you did it with exim took me about an hour or so (made a stupid mistake, that costs time) a few weeks ago. If you, as a beginner, have to read the docs twice, let it be 5 hours of work. But it's not "work for days".

Contionus maintainance (say: security upgrades) should be the basic work for all applications if you run anything connected to the internet. If you don't want that, you'd better leave it.
