Welcome to the OpenWebMail!

This program is going to send a short message back to the developer,
so we could have the idea that who is installing and how many sites are
using this software, the content to be sent is:

OS: SunOS 5.10 i86pc
Perl: 5.010000
WebMail: OpenWebMail 2.53 20080123

Send the site report?(Y/n) n

Thank you.

I also set up a virtual host in Apache for openwebmail - http://openwebmail.geminitwins.net/.
Therefore, I also had to create a new domain name in named for it.

After configuring both Apache and named, a reload for named and a restart for Apache are needed to pick up all the new configurations.

I can now use the openwebmail for geminitwins.net to send and receive email messages. The only exception is geminitwins.net can NOT send email to hsiao.net but it can receive email from hsiao.net without problems.
