Linux (all distros)

I don't think it's fair to lump all distros together here I'd break them off into RPM based, Debian based and others. I feel RedHat based RPM distros are best for Courier. Sam develops on FC4 I believe. Once

Start a flame war? ;-)

you've done the rpmbuild process a few times upgrades tend to take less than 5 minutes of admin time. Debian ships Courier but it's an old version, you'll have to grab a non-official deb to get the latest, imho, debian want to be a BSD (

??? - Those "non-official" are quiet unstable and have killed several times my Test-Mail-Server... Fortunatly I do not blind update...

I am using Debian/Stable for the system and the Courier/Unstable as backport for my mailservers after excessiv testing of 1-2 weeks is OK.

Haven't used 10 but I understand with 8 and 9 you've got to install tons of GNU stuff on your own just to get Courier to compile. Then you spend your time manually compiling and installing updates, if you're gonnna go this route, you minds well get the "coolness" of Gentoo while your at it...

I like my Sun Blade's running Debian/Stable and Courier/Unstable Sun Hardware seems very good... never had problems since my SS10.
