RE: [nnhlug] MTA Religious War (Was Re: proftp)

I always thought that if one understood perl code and regular expressions, one should be able to handle sendmail's cf file. As for qmail being faster, I haven't seen anyone claim above 70k/hour, which is what I'm getting with sendmail at the moment. *
