Exim, and other Mail Systems -- Conference 2007
              Preliminary Announcement and Call for Papers
                          23/24-Jul-2007
                        Cambridge, England


Purpose of Conference:

          * Provide a forum to discuss practical experiences using Exim
            and other e-mail systems, for a wide range of users, from ISPs
            to tiny sites.


          * Provide tutorials for various levels of expertise.


          * Provide a venue for the community, for informal networking and
            meeting socially.


          The last conference was solely about Exim.  This time we have
          broadened the theme because many topics -- issues with very
          large mail systems, resilience of mail systems, mail server
          clustering, mail performance, running message stores, spam
          filtering techniques, etc. -- are common to all, and we want
          as broad a community as possible to participate.



Call for papers, tutorials, BOF topics

          Papers:
            Send abstracts of about 200 words, along with a short biographical
            note, to exim07-speakers (at) uit.co.uk.  Talks should last 30-60
            minutes, including Q&A.


          Tutorials:
            If you would like to present a tutorial, send an abstract as above.


          Suggestions:
            If you don't want to speak, but there is a topic you're
            particularly interested in, or a speaker you think would be
            good for the conference, do let us know on the above e-mail address.
