--As of December 31, 2006 2:30:51 PM +0100, Sander Holthaus is alleged to
have said:
I'm not saying that things should not evolve, I'm not saying that
email should not be instant or that businesses should not use it the
way they do. But the technology behind email hasn't kept up pace with
the way it is being used and the way people want it to use.
If people really want email to be instant, secure and reliable, they
should design a new protocol with those constraints in mind. Untill
then, it remains a best effort.
--As for the rest, it is mine.
So we, the email system maintainers, should be giving our _best effort_ to
make sure that the system works as quickly and reliably as possible. ;)
ClamAV is a tool towards that, and (generally) does a good job of helping
the admin with the task of maintaining the email service. I think we all
agree there.
