Yep. That's why I never had a closer look at sendmail. If possible, |
| 8 |
I replace it everywhere. |

Uhm, if you don't know sendmail, then why start with sendmail |
| 14 |
in the first place? There are quite some easier MTAs out there. |
| 15 |
I personally like Postfix best, but Exim seems to be popular |
| 16 |
as well. And for simple setups something like ssmtp might even |
| 17 |
be sufficient. |

So, the real question is: Why do you want to use sendmail? |
| 20 |
Is there any real reason? |

What do you want to accomplish? What benefit do you see by |
| 27 |
doing that? |
