Does anyone know of any very trimmed down MTA that all it does is
forward mail to a smarthost/central mailhost? i want something that doesn't
even sit on port 25, and unfortunately even when i configure exim in
"satellite" mode, it still keeps port 25 open.

h brings me to a question:
At work, i've scanned most of our major Linux servers with the
above nmap command and found something open on port 800. nmap says it's
called mdbs_daemon, but i can't find it being used anywhere in lsof
or listed in /etc/services. Does anyone know
ays to, but
very few people use that, on either end (user or programmer). It might be
a good idea to put them in a subdirectory owned by the user, say
/tmp/.${USER}/ORBit, or, like you say in their home directory, say
~/.orbit.
