Sendmail as made available from the debian developers. I've grown up as a sendmail junkie, and keep the O'Reilly book within arm's reach. I do need to buy the new one. > - Are you satisfied with it?

Minimal experience at high load, but then again, I used the sendmail bok to guide me when setting up my mailing list. My list would have to see a massive amount of email to cause the load to get crazy. It's set up so that mail to the list is delivered one at a time by a queue runner, not handled immediately. As such, I'd have to be delivering to all local mail boxes and have enough mail to last more than 30 minutes to push the load average above 1! So yes, I do like sendmail. --Pete _______________________________________________________________ Peter J.
