Hi, > > Would you explain why you picked sendmail? >
And why not ? Why the pejorative attitude towards sendmail ? Sendmail is actually easy to understand for a lot of applications. I'll illustrate with example applications on which I have actually made money when I was younger. These applications were easier to do with sendmail, and I don't think things have changed much since. a. A company wishes to send email via multiple dial-up connections, of which only one is active at a time. To save on telephone expenses, the dial-out is done once an hour. So the outgoing mail has to be frozen into two separate queues only one of which is to be flushed at a time. b. A company wishes to monitor outgoing mail. So the queue has to be frozen and flushed on an approval basis. And a web interface has to be provided to show the queue contents. No offence meant, of course :) Regards, -- "Saint" Pai _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
