If the new sendmail comes out with a more restrictive licence than the current one, we will not be able to move to it, but will have to stay with the current codebase, which at this point will be the only free-enough mail server. We have already expressed our concerns to them. Please don't let this degenerate into a discussion of mail server choices. Whoever you are, you won't know all the concerns we have to face.
