   Hi Janis,   
   I would be interested in any scripts that you have that will tie all my mail   
   stuff together. ie... when mail comes in and gets processed, and when someone   
   writes messages and they need to be packed to go out.  I do have to run my   
   ftp, telnet and http on non standard ports. For some reason they won't bind to   
   the standard even tho nothing else is bound to them.   
      
   Thanks,   
   Rich
