[ Humbug *General* list - semi-serious discussions about Humbug and
Unix-related topics. ]

I have used it in the past and it seems to work pretty well.  I don't seem
to use it much now though.  The last time I used it some of the config tools
were a bit lacking in settings (most specifically the sendmail setup iirc).


It uses it's own little mini-https server thing which may be a problem for
the more security conscious but if you were to block access from unknown
hosts using ipfwadm/ipchains then that should not really be a major drama.

I also found it a tad sluggish to run on a P133, not really sure what was
making it slow though.

Cheers
Michael Anthon
