    Will you please cut the crap?  Thank you.

    Unlike Sendmail, Postfix was written from scratch with security in
mind.  It had only one published security flaw since its first public
release in 1998.  The author, Wietse Venema, is also the author of
SATAN and tcpwrappers.  He knew one or two things about writing secure
code long before OpenBSD came into existence.  The objections people
occasionally have against Postfix are related to its license, not the
code quality.
