Sendmail gets blamed for a lot of mistakes that ADMINs make.
Please evaluate all the products with an open mind and realize that no matter
what you choose, you can make any of them insecure. Conversely, you can also
make any of them secure. I have yet to have any of my machines exploited
through sendmail. Go ahead and try. If anyone can, I'd like to know
