About a week ago, I started a thread explaining my attempts to
use ACL's on shared folders and bulletin boards using Postfix.
I explained in the thread that I could not get ACL's to work
correctly with specfic users. It was then pointed out to me
that the problem was in the MTA itself, Postfix. Postfix does
not pass off the credentials to the lmptd process (and does not
send AUTH either) and this was the pitfall to getting ACL's to
work correctly.

I verified this by posting to the Postfix mailing list and even
received a reply from the developer of Wietse stating what was
already said to me on the cyrus mailing list. The only MTA that
I found out that would be able to do this is Sendmail.

I share your manager's concern about using Sendmail; but are you certain that this can't be done with Exim ? (http://www.exim.org/)
