That's true, but in this case Debian happens to have it right. We should do what Debian does here because they're _right_, not just because they're doing it and we have to follow. >IMHO , Fedora should ship only one mail server/one app (maybe chosen by >% of users?) in the main CDs. Whatever we ship as default will have the largest percentage of users -- if it worked like that we'd never make any progress. If we switch the default, people who already have experience of a mail server can always switch to whatever they prefer, while the newbies get something which is well-documented, versatile and easy to work with. -- dwmw2
