Well, let's put it this way. For about 2 years now I've wanted sendmail in contribs and if we really needed another MTA alternative to postfix, I have very nice exim packages on rpmhelp.net and exim is a really nice MTA. Not that this is a plug to put exim in main (doesn't matter to me... it's available via rpmhelp.net), but a definite looking forward to not having sendmail in main anymore. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ "lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import" {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD}
