Debian switchable MTA mechanism

2021-02-16 Thread Kevin Shell
Hello Debian Users. Why Debian does't have a switchable MTA mechanism to allow install multiple MTAs at the same time? Fedora, Centos etc. allow users to install multiple MTAs at the same time. There's a "alternatives --config mta" command to allow to choose between alternative MTA. -- kevin
