Don't they? ;) Oh, I see. Qmail is a toaster. Well, that would explain why my Plesk VPS has such crappy email reliability! <https://secure1.securityspace.com/s_survey/data/man.200701/mxsurvey.html#x22> Seriously though, Qmail in Plesk doesn't identify itself, so perhaps it does fill a good proportion of the 50% of servers that don't identify themselves. It's interesting to note that the survey shows more than 50% of Exim users are using a recent version (4.63). I guess the updates since then haven't been significant to most people. All but about 4% are on 4.50 or above. That compares well with Sendmail, Posfix and MS. -- Ian Eiloart IT Services, University of Sussex -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
