My department at work runs its own mail system (separate from the rest of the company's Exchange fiasco), and it is less than satisfying for those of us trying to be remote users (especially when being a remote user at a conference or public meeting over a wireless network). So I'm trying to convince them to switch to Courier because of the smtp-auth and starttls features.
Despite the fact they are already sold on Courier IMAP, they seem to be stuck on Postfix and don't want to switch to the Courier MTA. Now, Postfix is good, but you have to apply multiple patches to get the feature set we want (last time I checked, anyway). Hence, they are slow to move on the project, despite the fact that Courier has theses features "out of the box". So the excuse I get for Courier vs. Postfix is "security." And the completely subjective comment, "I don't think Courier is as secure as Postfix." (I equate this mentality to the Linux vs. Windows argument of "I think Linux is harder to support." -- completely subjective and no way to defeat it because there is no way to measure it). Anyway, are there any large and fairly exposed installations of the Courier MTA running to show that it indeed is safe? Customer testimonials? -andy _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
