And, I thank you again.  _My_ servers runs Sendmail
over FBSD-stable, but the ISP I use from home,
where, incidentally, I'm doing more and more of my
work, seems to be running SMTPD.  I bounce
"daleco.biz" mail to them via aliases, 'cause I didn't
want to mess with one more open port on the
WAN, and I use their MTA so I don't have to
put their netblock(s) in my "relay-domains" lest
one of their other many clients feel the need to
advertise in bulk....

The message from the OP had the subject line
Subject: Mandrake OK, RedHat OK, Win OK,
.... FreeBSD NOK ... Any driver? Please help!!!

Not really surprising that spamassassin caught it,
with that many strikes against it, and, I'm wondering
if I may look into it for some of the shops I have
on contract.

Interesting that they (the ISP) are "quietly becoming
the standard" (their own slogan....)  yet using what
might be "non-standard" MTAs.  I may encourage
them to take a look at FBSD :-)
