I could name a few: * Because I've been using for a long time and don't feel like learning another MTA if i don't have to. * I know it pretty well and I *trust* it. * It does everything+ I need it to do. * Is so secure that it hasn't needed an update since May 1998 ;). All those points (except the last, unfortunately) can pretty much be applied to any piece of software I use (bash, python, vim, Gentoo...) -- Albert W. Hopkins -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
