Sendmail comes installed and is the mail transport agent (MTA) which handles more of the Internet's mail. The ports collection also includes qmail, postfix, and exim among others. The qmail program is popular because it was written from the ground up with security in mind. Postfix is newer and has similar design goals to qmail except that it was designed with the idea of looking like sendmail from a user perspective. Posifix is used to power the FreeBSD.org mail server. I don't really know anything about exim, but some people swear by it. -- Brooks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
