Just to chime in, qmail is another popular package, and although I have used
it, I don't know how well it meets your criteria.

Subject: Yanking Sendmail need something easier to understand


I would like to rid myself of the really difficult to understand sendmail.


Does anyone know of any other program that can do the following:

1) Map local user names to my ISP email address.
	dave@localhost   dleimbac@earthlink.net

2) Work with procmail as a delivery agent. [filters]
3) Relay my outgoing mail to an external SMTP server.


I like the fact that sendmail does all of these things but it is
ridiculously hard to understand what the configuration files mean.

I have the current setup where I have to run a cron job to get 
my outgoing mail delivered by doing sendmail -q.

Its really irritating...  If there is a major upgrade to sendmail
I won't be able to re-configure it! :)

I used the install-sendmail Perl script I found on freshmeat.net to
get it configured as it is now...  Unfortunately I have no clue what it
did.


Dave
