Can't comment on MIMEDefang vs amavisd-new but conventional wisdom is that Sendmail is much trickier to manage and should be avoided unless you already are locked in, as it were, with Sendmail. I'm not a mail administrator -- if you can afford one and she likes Sendmail, by all means listen to her. It's not like Postfix and Sendmail are the only two alternatives. In particular, Qmail and Exim are quite popular, and Courier tends to get mentioned as a commercial alternative. /* era */ -- The email address era the contact information Just for kicks, imagine at iki dot fi is heavily link on my home page at what it's like to get spam filtered.
