TOPIC
"Internet Mailers"
E-mail has become one of the most important applications in
almost every company everywhere, and the ability to send and
receive Internet e-mail is a must. There are several popular,
public domain mail transfer agents (MTAs) to choose from. We will
present three of these, "sendmail", "postfix" and "qmail". The
merits of each will be discussed in a panel forum, and
interaction from the audience is encouraged.
