Hello Bruce, as I already said this is a very good document. Though it's an
old message, I am still looking at it from time to time. At the time I
suggested grsecurity patch (not necessarily the ACL), postfix/qmail since
the document seems security oriented. 
I do have a question: you said sendmail was chosen in order to use same tool
as other servers in you system. Is BIND a same kind choice ? Did you
consider DJBDNS ?

Emmanuel.
