Victor,

Thanks for the information, very useful.  I would be particularly curious
to know if Postfix is now licensed under the CPL rather than the IPL.
Would Wietse need to confirm that?

So, since the mysql exception does not include the IPL, then it seems that making it possible to link postfix against the mysql libraries puts others in a bind if they want the functionality, given the incompatibility between the two licenses.

Wieste, will postfix be moving to the CPL, or will it be retaining the IPL?

Thanks,
Quanah
