I'd prefer it have it all together. But in the end it doesn't REALLY

I haven't spoken to the Exim4U guys yet. I was planning on dropping them

They're on this list though.. Gordon? What do you think? :-)

There will, of course, be a simple way to migrate the data over when
people upgrade. And as always, I eat my own dogfood - I use this
software myself for several domains so I'm going to be doing lots of
live testing before a release is put out there!
