Yes, but MimeDefang does all the same stuff that you can do in qpsmtpd - or if it doesn't it would be easy to duplicate there, and it works with sendmail. And the things you can control in sendmail's access file are handled more effeciently than you can do it in perl. Qpsmtpd is a neat idea but there is just a lot of functionality to duplicate to match sendmail plus a milter. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
