Subject: running mail server at home
Date: Thursday, February 7, 2008 - 3:51 am

I have a P3 box with 120GB HDD that's doing web, ssh and samba at the moment. I
am planning setup sendmail, spamd, mimedefang, clamd and spam-assassin
on this box along with web, ssh and samba.

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with running a mail server at home.
I want to know if I should use only one box or buy another box? Also,
what sort of electricity bills
will I run into? And also if is there anything else I would need to know.

Thanks for any help.
