In-house volume testing I've done for with fbsd 5.4 has postfix smokin' 
sendmail with at least a 260% increase.  With softupdates enabled and a
few other simple things pfix on fbsd rocks.  FWIW.

Sendmail can certainly be considered as a serious mail server; it is
used for a large fraction of the internet, and handles uncounted
millions of emails a day.

Postfix is a good alternative, with the benefit that it is a good bit 
easier to configure.  Both are reliable products and suitable for high
volume professional use.

sendmail or another mail server?

2005-09-26 Thread Efren Bravo
Hi,

I've installed a fBSD and now I'm tuning it 'cause I need to put it to
serve as mail server.  
  
My questions is if sendmail is able to serve as a serious mail server or I
should try with another software for this job.  
  
In case I choose sendmail or another mail server software, exists an web
interface for them?  
  
thanks...
