I think these are the only two major Linux/BSD SMTP servers I'd recommend as current today... but which is "better" is like asking which color is "better", purple or green. > Sendmail is actively maintained and works fine, but configuring it > is hard and the documentation is a 30 year stream of consciousness. > Its support is on usenet, comp.mail.sendmail, where the maintainer > is active but very grumpy. I ran sendmail for many years, got my release notes entries to show for it. :) It was kind of neat to be able to do wacky things with what was essentially a programming language config, but now I think there's better ways to get most of the same stuff done with milters, policy maps, etc. -- Chris Adams <c...@cmadams.net> _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
