RE: [MLUG] Critical Vulnerability in Sendmail and aSnortVulnerability

["Brent Deterding" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Check out "Life with qmail" for all of your qmail needs. The pdf is
free, although it is a fraction of the book (which is excellent btw). I
use qmail as a relay. I've not yet introduced spamassassin to the mix,
although I do use the ordb (open relay database) with it. It does take a
little bit to get up and cranking though

I have no idea.  I don't use it because it's better than something else.
It's just the only thing I know.

What do you use?  Is it qmail?  Is it hard to install?  Tell me more, if
you have a minute, because I'm interested in making a change if it isn't
going to take me all day to install the new program.

Best,

Mike
