I wish the postfix.org web site more information on it...
A list of benefits / advantages, install instructions, FAQ, etc etc etc...
right now, its just a list of mirrors and a place to download the source...

I havent downloaded it yet, and am not really interested in using it at this
time
but I am curious about it... The web site in its current state is
semi-useless :(

I'm definately not against postfix replacing sendmail, but heck
right now sendmail works, and its one of those things you just don't touch
unless you have to :)

Don't sweat it Marc..  Postfix was formerly known as VMailer, and has had
a good year or two of development by a rather well respected person with a
pretty good security track record.

The reason altavista doesn't see it is because the postfix.org thing is
rather recent, as is the name (to avoid a potential trademark conflict).  I
regularly see stuff that's months out of date from altavista.

Cheers,
