I'm pretty sure I didn't say anything of the sort.  I said it
was less mature, in the sense that it needs additional development.

Yes, I did say that in case people here were not aware of it,
and from the responses I don't think everyone was.

I'm quite sure I didn't say any of that.

Yes, what I tried to say was that mimedefang does much of
the same things that qpsmtpd needs to do, and mostly in perl,
and there might be a way to use some or all of it.  Also,
that the mimedefang mail list would be a valuable resource
for the discussions of how different approaches have worked
out in practice.

I thought I was responding to misconceptions about sendmail.
I think everyone knows now that you can write filters in
perl so we can leave that topic alone.
