Well I wouldn't have asked for comments if I hadn't been willing to listen. It took a little explaining, but I can see where folks are coming from. :-) This will come up again when we try to sandbox sendmail, but we can leave it alone for now. When it does come up, I'd appreciate it if the folks with as much of a handle on the situation as you, Markus and Tim would chip in with some ideas on how to move forward. :-) Stay tuned!
