OT: flame on (was Re: [TriLUG] Debian Bigots)

[Andrew C. Oliver]

Man I feel all the love.  Now can we all start trying to increase the 
signal on this conversation and turn it back
towards Linux?  I'd like to have an in depth conversation about mail 
servers (it apparently takes at least 6 months
to set one up on linux).  

I understand Microsoft Exchange can be set up "securely" in a few 
minutes.  How odd it takes 6 months to set up
whatever-mail-service-we-are-planning-to-use on linux ;-)  Is that why 
people choose exchange on M$ over X on linux?  Because of all that time 
it takes to set it up?

I'd like to understand a little more as to why.  I'm freeing up for time 
shortly and I'm planning to set my own mail server up so that I can have 
email thats at least as reliable as the postal service again (although 
strangely I've started receiving mine today but it might be a fluke).
