Furthermore, he's saying that he doesn't want everything on the machine using the wrapper. > P.S. If you dont wont to upgrade (what a word) a MTA then you should try > qmail. He never said he was adverse to upgrading his MTA. What really surprises me about this thread is the fact that so many people are arguing against additional configurability.
