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

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?

Kind regards,
