RE: Linux Distros - was: Bypass host from mailscanner

[Kenneth Hansen]

I have been trying out AlmaLinux. Given, it is still in beta but from my initial testing it seems to run as a drop-in replacement for CentOS 8.
I am not that sure about Fedora, since it is a running distribution having bleeding edge versions of the software components.
So from the looks of it, I will be shifting my own deployments from CentOS7/8 to AlmaLinux

 Just an FYI. I just got through downloading and installing Fedora Server 33, and it installs and runs exactly the same as CentOS 7 or 8.

I will next try to install Sendmail and Mailscanner, along with DoveCot and then fire up several hundred domains under bind and see how things go.

Will let you know how it all goes. Thank you!

Rocky Linux is still in the make and I converted my personal systems
from Centos8 to Springdale Linux 8.
