I really apreciate so much your intervention !!!
BUT, Do you believe postfix's smtpd can make all that obtuse-smtp do? humm
!! hard to replay it ?
To be honest I know very little about postfix. I 'm sure a lot advantages
and features are unknown for me !!
Moreover obtuse-smtpd seem to be very save !!! and overall very easy to
modify !!!
For instance, sometimes it's nessesary deny or gain a copy of some mails
that contain an specific word inside, to do that you have to change some
code's lines ... and I think obtuse-smtp is simpler than many other MTAs !!!
I'll glad If you have more suggesting !!
By the way , are you from argentina ? Can you speak spanish ?
excuse me for my bad spanish-english!!!

Why use another smtpd, if Postfix already comes with one? Aren't
complicating
it all? :-)
