I never said there weren't. Working, however, and working reliably in a consistent and permanent fashion, are completely seperate things.
I have no dislike of MailScanner, but to recommend it to someone to use with a certain MTA when it is known to run the risk of losing|corrupting email with that MTA, however remote the chance, is stupidity and borderline negligent.
I didn't recommend Postfix, I recommended Sendmail so I won't bother to answer your other remarks.
Anyhow, back to my original point to the Lady who asked, MailScanner is perfectly happy with any other MTA. Amavis should work with any MTA. You also have Xamime, which will work with all except Qmail, as far as I know.
Thanks for telling me even though I didn't ask.
Anyhow, since you were the first one to do the handbag swinging, who has a certain software combination fetish and is the one being jugdemental?
Handbag swinging? I didn't even reply to your post, but to hers so who's trying to pick a fight here? Out of the software she herself mentioned I think Sendmail and MailScanner makes the better pair but that doesn't mean I have a fetish for that combo. About being judgemental, that Postfix is the slowest MTA when used with MailScanner is well tested, much more so than the reliability problems. I also tried to explain why that is so, just so that I wouldn't come across judgemental and anti-Postfix which I'm not.
And as for being a "Postfix user", I am also an Exim and a Sendmail "user".
Ok, but I still didn't reply to your post so I'm not sure what that information is for.
Grow up. I gave pertinent, and truthful, advice to the question, that is all.
You gave a short warning that is proven wrong by many happy users, if you call that all the fancy things above it's your choice. You have a very short fuse Matt.
