For ~10 years I've been a satisfied sendmail-user. Does it count for a
legitimate reason?

I have it. But that is for other MTA's receiving mails from my one.
I want to use SPF for incomming mails too...

Thanks, but I'd prefer to stick with sendmail till the end of its days.
Or at least till the first usable sendmailX/MeTA1, whatever comes first...

Finally someone who does not suggest me to switch to other MTA!
btw, It is strange, there is a milter for SenderID (which iirc is in some
way
close to Microsoft) in portage tree, but nothing for openSPF. I will try to
make an ebuild. Maybe there are still more "real unix admins" using
old'n'good sendmail. But no flame over "which MTA is better", please.
(anyway, we all know Sendmail is the best! :-)
