aramaki status

as some of you may well know were in the process of replacing our old and faithful mail server. aramaki is currently a sun sparcclassic running openbsd and has served us without fault for nearly 3 straight years however its now time to retire her.

new aramaki is a k6/2 500, (barracuda's old desktop), with 128 mb ram, a 4gig ide hdd (my old desktops hdd) currently an old dlink 10/100 nic (will replace with netgear if i can get the openbsd driver stable). it will be running openbsd 3.5, and were changing from qmail+mysql to exim+mysql. im also adding virus scanning (thanks to the opensource clamav scanner), spam filtering thanks to spamassassin and mailman so we can look after out mailing lists and have cool and incriminating archives. im also making sure we have nice mrtg graphs and im also thinking about throwing some basic webmail on. not sure on the webmail yet.

but it will be openbsd, running exim+mysql+clamav+spamassassin+mailman.

ahh the fun.
