RedHat has RPM - an utility used to install programs which
can _verify_ if installation is correct - IMO it will help
in case some hacker modifies a program to access your host.
Maybe Debian has similar one, too (anyone knows?). If you
use Slackware, you can only use MD5SUM manually...

How many connections simultaneously? I suggest 1MB+ RAM
per connection. HDD - at least 10MB in /var per mailbox.
