I haven't stayed quite up to the minute on MTA's, but my impression
was that sendmail really, really needed the milter interface but once
it was added  and tools like MimeDefang were developed to handle
external processing within steps of the SMTP conversion (and under
different user ID's if you want) it became as good as anything.
Maybe RedHat just never found MimeDefang...
