My MTA is sendmail: checking this out at: http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/ It mentions a `dual sendmail set-up' being required to use it with sendmail and says it works best with Postfix. I've seen that term ( `Dual Sendmail setup' ) a few times lately but haven't really seen anything telling what it means. Do you know what that reference is about? == (at http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/) [...] It is written in Perl for maintainability, without paying a significant price for speed. It talks to MTA via (E)SMTP or LMTP, or by using helper programs. Best with Postfix, fine with dual-sendmail setup and Exim v4, works with sendmail/milter, or with any MTA as a SMTP relay. 'Howto' for qmail available as well. [...] ==
