Actually I run sendmail and believe it to be reasonably secure. Since the
message I replied to was in regards to Qmail vs. Postfix I only addressed
that issue. At this point I recommend Postfix to friends who're setting
up a low volume/low maintanence mail server and lack experience with any
of the three - mainly for it's ease of use. I run sendmail because I have
more experience with it, it's better integrated into SuSE 7.0, and I
happen to like Turing-complete configuration languages*. Of course I also
thought it was fun to implement a Turing machine in T-SQL so my view of
reality is known to be skewed.
