I can support this position as well. I don't think we're likely to find consensus on replacing one MTA with another (the community is too diverse for that), so replacing a full-featured MTA with one that has the minimum necessary features for "nullclient" operations and then allowing people to install whatever full-featured MTA they may want seems to be the best alternative. -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ====================================================================== Brad Knowles, || Belgacom Skynet SA/NV Systems Architect, Mail/News/FTP/Proxy Admin || Rue Colonel Bourg, 124 Phone/Fax: +32-2-706.13.11/12.49 || B-1140 Brussels http://www.skynet.be || Belgium To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
