I do a similar thing with MailScanner, it supports at least Sendmail, Postfix and Exim as MTAs and even though I use Sendmail with it I think a Postfix user would be annoyed if it tried to pull in Sendmail. So I don't declare any MTA dependency at all. /peter _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
