> postfix and qmail are both scalable (so is sendmail).. I agree with all points except the one above. Sendmail is not scalable. If it were, then a lot of heavy SMTP sites would use it, and there would be no complaints about resource use and delivery speed. If it were, then there would be no projects like qmail or postfix which provide a decent alternate SMTP server. Sendmail is monolithic. Sendmail is insecure. Sendmail is difficult to configure. Sendmail is a pain to maintain. Sendmail is not scalable.
