??? I chose postfix for my IMGate project (FreeBSD mail hub in front 
of Ipswitch Imail for NT) because it was so easy to configure (vs 
qmail and sendmail), and based on the success of bunches of NT GUI 
jockeys (basically zilch *nix backgnd) who have gotten postfix 
working with little or no help, I chose right and your opinion is 
180° out from my experience.
