I personally run SME 5.5 on all my production servers so please do not think
I do not feel SME 5.5 is fine for 'most' users.

Unfortunately there remain deficiences in SME 5.5 and mailfront that are
with holding many users from being able to upgrade.  It would be of
tremendous benefit to all if Mitel would continue to focus resources on
developing mailfront to match the capabilities of obtuse_smtpd.  Further
these capabilites are needed on SME 5.5 today.

I tried to back port mailfront from SME 5.6 (which offer some more
capabilites) to SME 5.5 but my initial testing proved problematic.

If Mitel would build, test and release a current mailfront update for SME
5.5, I will try to test and build a panel to utilize the new features.

In general, what we need is the ability to restrict mail down to the user
level.  Remove the accept/reject based on valid domain and add accept/reject
based on valid users, psuedonyms and groups.  Offer the ability to restrict
inbound and outbound based on defined users, psuedonyms and groups.  (This
is somewhat enabled but not complete)

What ideas do you and/or Mitel have to achieve the above for SME 5.5 today
and SME 5.6 in the future?

Regards,
