I fully agree with Per. That was one of the main reasons why I moved away from Sendmail towards Postfix some years ago. No regrets since then. YMMV Martin ----- Original Message ----

Hi Martin, Carlos, Sandy, Per Thanks for the feedback. So it seems Postfix could be configured or require no configuration. Interesting that sendmail doesn't get a mention.

In my personal opinion, Postfix is much easier to deal with. The learning curve is far less steep, and the basic concepts are easily understood. It does get complex too, but not until you need it - whereas sendmail starts out being very complex (IMO).
