Garrett, thanks for the good URL. Here's my dilema: I've run sendmail on the box for years. My green and highly intelligent partner wants to replace it with qmail. On technical grounds I've not really found a good reason to not switch. A flame war wasn't what I was intending -- I was hoping to find out is sendmail really better suited for an ISP environment? Suitability is a big issue with me. User empowerment is a great concern too and qmail seems to do a little bit better job of empowering their users to manage their own domain mailboxes. However, I really don't want to totally relearn an MTA after I've invested so much into sendmail after all these years. Keeping these gauges in mind, suitability for an ISP and user empowerment is qmail a better candidate then sendmail? I am hoping to find out what other people have concluded about this question.
