Nope, it highlights the commonality in attitude between Inter 7 and DJB. An attitude which Tom Collins does not share. Tom sees feature requests that address needs and acts upon them; DJB and Inter 7 see feature requests that address needs and tell people to go screw themselves because they do not need those features. > Obviously you have it in you that qmail is evil As I said, qmail is secure and reliable. But it fails to include the vital functionality that is provided by the 20 or so patches that almost everyone considers to be essential. YOu put words in my mouth... > and DJB is out to get everyone. Another straw man. I stated that DJB's attitude means that qmail is declining in popularity and explained why. Some DJB-heads immediately proclaimed that they would not trust any mail server created by any means other than getting a tarball and compiling from scratch. You'd better not tell them that Inter 7 dropped vpopmail and qmailadmin development for over 18 months because Ken was working on developing RPMS that Inter 7 could make money on and show no intention of making available under the GPL. Jeremy, did I not give you a warning yesterday about terrirtory you had better not eplore? I thought I did... If not, I will take this no further. If I did give you that warning and you pursue this, it is chestnut time... > I'm through feeding this troll. But I am far from through exposing your lies. Of course, you can delete me from the list. But I have enough direct contacts that such an action would not go unnoticed or unremarked upon here. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support
