Hi David, I seem to have stirred up a hornets nest here by suggesting the combination. I did sort-of try a while ago but didn't get very far and the situation where I thought I would need it has changed. However, I think it would be a worthwhile project because qpsmtpd can work as the receiving front-end for either qmail or postfix and would thus let the excellent features of mimedefang work just about everywhere. Since qpsmtpd is all-perl, maybe any missing features could be added or a better way than the milter interface used to connect them. Or, the suggestion that wasn't very well received here the first time around: run sendmail as the front-end receiver feeding mimedefang with qpsmtpd's queue delivery code glued in. I suppose you'd get the worst of all possible methods that way but it sounds crazy enough to work if you can tell sendmail to skip its own queue/delivery step. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
