Compiling on solaris 10 is not pleasant. That's how I feel about
it. It can be done, sure, but you have to know a lot about
compiling. I _DO_ compile but on solaris express, not S10.

I run cyrus imapd+MD+SpamAssassin in a mailzone. I use software
packages from Blastwave for this. Setting things up is easy.
Runs very well in the zone (also smarthost for all other machines in
the house ;-)
