At my earlier employer's, we were running sendmail/procmail for about 70 domains with traffic in excess of 10000 emails a day. We never experienced any issues. OTOH, maildrop is part of the courier suite; so the rock solid stability and blazing speed that is the hallmark of the suite makes its presence felt in maildrop as well. A plus point is that maildrop's filtering language is much simpler to master than that of procmail's. Thus one can write more optimised and faster to execute scripts with maildrop than procmail. My opinion, of course. Binand PS: I am a very satisfied convert from procmail to maildrop; sendmail to courier. Opinions might be biased. -- If you found this helpful, please take some time off to rate it: http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=binand ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
