I was not speaking of replacing sendmail in the base system, only on offering this mail agent in the *ports*, this is why i posted in freebsd-ports. I should have been clearer. This mail agent doesn't offer anything compelling compared to sendmail, only it is much smaller and presumably more secure. For example if you want a mail agent in a jail, you can envision to use this one instead of sendmail because it is much lighter. Yes i know ssmtpd could do the same, more or less but this one has a little more flexibility without falling in the complexity of the big ones. -- Michel TALON _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
