But I have no idea who is still at the company or not. But if an email account hasn't been accessed in 30 days or so I am pretty darn sure that person ...

I know this is probably the wrong place to ask this but everywhere else only has linux specific info about Spamassassin.

Is there a way to creat a blacklist in the Spamassassin for Windows that hMailserver uses?

I can't figure out how to do this.

Re: Moving/Migrating onto a new server

We are currently using SQL Server 2005.

So I just run the latest install on the server and there should be no issue going from 5.3.3 to 5.6.4?

I never had a problem upgrading several times in the past, but this email server is used so much now I just figured "if it ain't broke don't fix it".
