Even when they don't know tech they realise a full rewrite means deep trouble in the codebase. So today you have : - small non-critical MTAs : will use whatever is bundled with the OS - bigger/more critical projects -> these days it's not sendmail but one of its alternatives (which one comes first vary) - very uncommon deployments which need sendmail high-end features -> will use sendmail (but I doubt they run Fedora anyway) I work in a big corp which is very conservative and is usually lagging a few years behind the IT market, and even it dumped sendmail several years ago for its corporate-level MTA infrastructure.
