Never used Exim, so I'm not really sure how much truth is in the author's statement: "The bottom line is that Exim does not perform particularly well in environments where the queue regularly gets very large. It was never designed for this; deliveries from the queue were always intended to be 'exceptions' rather than the norm." Wouldn't that be a bit of a concern, at least on the server? Maybe we should have one default for the Server and some other for the Desktop spin? One other question - do Fedora packages ship with Exim set SUID root? Is that something to worry about? PS. As I said, never used Exim - just asking out of curiosity. -- Bojan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
