4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for administrators of small Linux systems. Nov 5 2002
By Bob Neveln
Format:Paperback
The author is skilled at presenting underlying
principles accurately and with a minimum of jargon.
He combines a clear treatment of general principles
with many examples demonstrating how to configure mail
in many different settings. The examples will be especially useful in small organizations or businesses.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. Sep 11 2002
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I wasted my money, please don't waste yours. The book covers Sendmail in less than 30 pages and is a beginners course on how email works "generally" and how good Linux is at being a server. There is no real help offered in this book. It's sole purpose was to get money from people who are looking for a "good" book on Sendmail, especially seeing as how O'Rielly can't even make one.

Anyway, The people who wrote and published this book should be neutered.

2.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Title :-( Dec 29 2000
By Rick Roberts
Format:Paperback
Bad Book for Sendmail. Almost nothing about Sendmail in here. Good intro info about everything else though. (Email Principles, Linux as a mail server, Communication & Network info, DNS, SMPT, POP3, IMAP, PPP, UUCP). I feel like I wasted my money.
