Hmm, I was able to use "tasksel" after installation, and install the Mail server task without a problem.

I'll test from the cd...

Pete-

I'm marking this 'fix released'. I'm not able to reproduce this on the current server cd's.

As you know, the daily snapshots can certain have quirks. I bet this was just one of them...
