I have a case and power supply, I guess it is 250W, does your mobo need ATX
ps? cause mine is not. It is a medium tower, has a pentium motherboard,
which can be removed. It is clean.
let me know
Do I understand correct, this is for the Trilug mail server? I would be
delighted to help. I have installed qmail a couple of times and is in
production at a few places. have also installed IMP and IMAP. can pitch in
with what ever it is worth!
thanks
Hari

I can help with this... can't go the whole distance but perhaps some
other folks could pitch in.

U/f I'm in need of drives myself (SCSI at least... I have old IDEs a few
gigs at a time...I do have a 5 1/4"! IDE drive (its somewhere between
4-12 gb...  it lists several sizes but I don't remember which model it
was). .  I'd be happy to donate it provided someone could help me (I'm
all SCSI...no IDE) erase it and verify its erasure.  (at one time it
held confidential information that I'm still contractually obligated to
protect....or one of these drives did...humm)  Trouble is whether you
have the mountings for a 5 1/4" very slim IDE drive (Quantum Bigfoot)

I have a PIII motherboard that is gathering dust on my bookshelf.  I do
not patronize Intel any longer because I think AMDs processors are far
superior.  The processor that was in it self-immolated despite having
the manufacturers recommended fan attached so I am not aware of the
motherboard's actual status (it could be fried to but I strongly doubt
it).

I have a power supply to go with it.  It was at least big enough to
drive it at the time (I needed bigger for my T-bird).

So by my calculations what would be needed is a case, ribbon cables,
PIII (up to 700mhz if I recall), mounting brackets and some manner of
video card.  That would get us a machine.

Too bad I never look at the top shelf of my book case or I'd have
thought about this earlier... :-)

oh ...umm.. run g/I\ /s//SuperLink Software\, Inc\./g on the above.. ;-)

Let me know if this would help and I'll bring it in (please bring me a
receipt :-D ).

I can also provide labor for assembling this + parts into a working
system if needed.
