    I will e-mail josswin, as he maybe compromised.

    I am using Postfix, what should I look for on the server? Not sure if I have
    been broken into, but its certainly shaken me up (and its best to assume that
    I have been compromised, better safe than sorry).

    Now checking through Nix's website, nice to have a rescource like that!
