It doesn't. The only way to make Postfix run with a higer load than Sendmail is to do it on purpose. If you have any proof to the contary, please send it to the postfix mailing list (postfix-users at postfix.org). The people there will be very interested in your test results. > So unless postfix adventually runs with cleaner code that means lighter > loads then sendmail, do more features than sendmail, I don't see why I > should even entertain the idea of useing it, I know sendmail and I trust > it. FWIW, I started to look at different smtp servers, found out that making a sendmail configuration file involves a two-way pass though m4 and promptly decided to drop it from my list. Something that has such a convulted setup process does not merit the time taken to learn using it, IMHO. Emmanuel
