My first-hand experience makes it so. | IOW, as long as it's possible to configure it to hose your network, | you're not interested in whether it can be configured not to do so? Exactly. Because some day someone is going to come along and accidentaly use the default settings and more mail will be lost. If it has the -capability- of hosing the network and losing mail we are absolutely not interested. That goes for qmail as well as Postfix. Simple as that. | This is very, very OT. Can those interested in it take it off-list, | please?
