That's not really true. YaST2 checks what MTA you have installed and has the ability to write config files for it...as long as it's SuSE supplied. I don't think it does exim or qmail.
And one should never hack a .cf file ..it should always be done by editing simple .mc files then running the m4 macros. Editing .cf files hasn't been needed in quite sometime.
For me it's just a prefs thing. I use Sendmail at work and I know a bunch of the sendmail developers personally...so it's easier for me. I say choose what you like ...play with a couple different MTA's and choose what suits you best.
Postfix on SuSE does not appear to use .mc files, at least on vers 7.3 and 8.1??? -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org icq#173753138
