Hello,
From a non expert:
I am setting my server up with Postfix for about 2000 users and hope I made a good choice. Before I selected postfix I did some research being on a Debian I started out with Exim but didn't find much support for it outside of the debian community. Sentmail being the biggest was next but I found that even know Sendmail has the biggest user base all newer scripts I been looking in prefer Postfix including dbMail.
So I did some googling: Postfix is a modular design where sendmail is this big single piece. As far es I remamber Postfix is by far faster, I think like 3 times. People say that postfix is better security wise. Being a newer package it doesn't have any or as many inherited vulnerabilities from old versions. It is easier to configure. And I have not found a single reason why Sendmail could be better then Postfix. If you do let me know Demi On 5/3/06, Marc Dirix <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, This might be off-topic. I see a lott of you using postfix, although I use sendmail. Even more, most of the dbmail howto's are postfix based. I wonder is there any good reason to switch from sendmail to postfix? Before I didn't think the spam-interface of postfix was as good as using milters. Although it had better ways of queueing. What are your experiences? How scalable is it?
