Which would you prefer, Qmail or Eudora?

I'm currently deciding which mail server to use and it has come down to these two.
They both have received good reviews and I can't see much that sets one apart from the other.

Opinions, suggestions?

Well, I cant really comment on this one. My only email experiences is Exim (when I use to run a cPanel server), Postfix, and Sendmail. Postfix is really stable and secure, and if you are using Fedora, Red hat, or Centos. You can install it right from yum. I wrote a guide about installing Postfix you can view it here. http://www.linuxservertalk.com/forum...hread.php?t=13

postfix is my favorite. I haven't tried Exim, Qmail, or Eudora.

Isn't Eudora a Windows mail client?

Haven't seen that in a while, hehe.

Yes. But, there's also a mail server.

I actually thought Eudora is a free download from somewhere, i think QMail you have to pay for? obviously you go on which will be the best but IMO i would'nt buy something that is just as good as being download. Thats just my opinion but you want the best so i aint really sure which one to choose from, but if you've had experience with them both then i would consider Eudora.

I think Eudora has to versions, 6.2 and 7.0, if you havent had past experience i would consider asking someone who knows more about them.

Well i use windows aswell as linux and i prefer Eudora on both but thats just personal opinion.

I have used Qmail but wasn't excited about it at all.
Have not used Eudora - it is available on Linux right?

Jason - what have been your experiences with postfix?

I actually use Outlook Express. I used to use Horde Mail online but then I started using Outlook Express because I had so many support email addresses. It works like a charm for me. I can block spam, check emails all at once or one at a time. I can also set up custom folders and whatnot and set rules on what to put in each. For example all emails from paypal go straight to a paypal folder that automatically saves them after being read.

Emperior Eric I can see where you got confused, but they are talking about a mail server for Linux. Not a mail client.
