I would like to say that I have successfully converted/convinced more than a few people of the values of Sendmail and Perl through showing them the cool stuff you can do with MD. I love seeing the people who start thinking of things they can do to email with Perl/Sendmail/MD. Come to think of it, I should find a jive filter and auto-attach a jive translation of all emails to every email. Sure enough, a quick web search and voila! http://rinkworks.com/dialect/ The disclaimers alone would be priceless: Communicashuns on o' drough University College London's clunker systems may be monito'ed o' reco'ded t'secure effective system opuh'shun and fo' oda' lawful purposes.
