I wouldn't call Sendmail's interface "nicer".  More powerful, yes, but 
considerably more complex.  As far as I know, it's also specific to 
SMTP, whereas Courier's API works with all mail sources.  Courier could 
mostly emulate milter, and you'd get a few benefits -- callbacks on MAIL 
FROM and RCPT TO, which would mostly help greylisting, and also the 
ability to modify messages directly.  However, I doubt that the code 
complexity would justify the marginal operational advantages of the 
interface.
