I assume you mean't a comparison between Postfix and Courier.  I just 
did that.  While about 10 items come up under Courier, they really 
aren't Courier items.  Postfix has about double, and there are actually 
exploits for it, but only a few.  This gives me a good indication of 
what the picture really is like.

What he is saying is, "Not that many people run Courier, so it is much 
more likely that there are holes in it that have not yet been 
discovered."  Therefore, I wonder how many people are running it, and 
how many are "big" installations.
