i didnt mean to say sendmail is a secure email server. what i meant was its not good to install * and qmail on the same box and use it for internet mail. In my case i hv qmail on a separate server which is on DMZ. My * is on a separate machine in my internal network and not exposed to Internet. i do hv the default sendmail on the * box.. So what i did was configured my sendmail to use qmail as a smart host. This way u can use best of both worlds.
