basically the same reason I also changed form qmail. > > What are the specific problems with security on exim/postfix? Our decision unfortunately I think that in this area they are both the same. They are both pretty secure and they both handle sql,ldap lookups very cleanly by jsut setting compile time options. I currently run postfix simply because i prefer configuration files that are in English i.le are understandable also because i did not have to unlearn all my sendmail knowledge and learn something new. It of course means that I can still use every script that was written to use sendmail originally and I like the chroot stuff. Exim is also as good though I found it more complicated to setup and use.
