Re: FWTK and smap/smapd

[Frederick M Avolio <fred () avolio com>]

The real problem with something like smap/smapd is that it uses Sendmail at 
all. Remember Sendmail (postfix, et al) supports IT ALL. On an e-mail 
gateway to the Internet, we don't (shouldn't) need that. We can make some 
assumptions, which simplify things considerably. And if we don't mind 
passing outbound e-mail to our ISP, things get even simpler. There's just 
no money in it. And of course given a choice of  "secure-er" or faster we 
take faster.
