Which FreeBSD version for MS?

[Martin Hepworth]

Pete

5.2.1 should be ok...been running at a few weeks with no hiccups on a
test machine that will eventually become our new email server..

Currently running MailScanner on fbsd 4.8 myself, but only cos at the
time the 5.x tree was a little too young for my liking even if it run
quite a bit faster on the same hardware..
