Hi Stuart:

I will keep that in mind as I have been rebuilding all the beater boxes in Linux.
(It would be better to have a Mercury Mail Server on an old box in case it gets compromised.)

Not just for testing.  Just like Mercury Mail Server, it's a good way to re-use a clunker old PC 
in a small/medium office environment.   You don't need a high end server for either of them. 
an old XP workstation that had difficulty with the lates MS Office does fine. 

(In fact I sometimes run both on the same semi-retired workstation).
