Thanks

I'm doing a bit more on the possible front-ending issue.
Might be doable in a little while.

Comments welcome.

THEY ARE WATCHING YOU.
The time has come for you to take the last step.
You must love THEM.
It is not enough to obey THEM.
You must love THEM.

Comments unwelcome

..in the (otherwise nice) text. In the context of a screed, inline comments like "uh...system" just make you look like another kook. Yes Exchange is a piece of shit. Everyone knows that.

I've adapted my message to my audience...

most of whom are, like me, tired of Exchange and are looking for better alternatives. Using Exim and SA as a front-end to Exchange is a first step for me and them to eventually replace Exchange entirely. As far as I'm concerned, people who take offense at such comments can go jump in a lake--they're not intended or welcome as the recipients of my labor. All of which is to say, I think you've misinterpreted my intended audience.

On the other subject, do you have a preferred alternative to the "cat"? Involving < perhaps or should I try to divine your solution with bones and chicken entrails?

Re: I've adapted my message to my audience...

"grep --with-filename expr filename_pattern" usually works. stdin and all that.

As for intended audience, it should be people who are cemented
to the POS Exchange - why try to convince the convinced?

As for "gratuitous use of cat", that's an old UNIX dig. You're guilty.
Fess up.

Thanks.

I think what I was trying to say before was that I didn't put this document out there to convince anyone of anything. It's there to help people who are already convinced, and are looking for How To Do It, since there is precious little of that in the MTA crowd specifically, and the sysadmin crowd in general. If people aren't already convinced that Exchange is a POS, then my little HOWTO document is not the place to try to convince them. Attempting such makes me look like a kook. ;)

Well, if I were an old UNIX'er, I'd do so. :) I learned on Apples and am employed on Windows. UNIX, I'm still leraning about. So again, thanks for the tip.
