You know, for me it does not metter what to use sendmail or something 
else. If you say that msmtp is better and more secure, so ok i will use it.

Can you tell me, maybe your postfix team can take a look at new version 
and make it little more secure too? And i hope that ldap/mysql modules 
will be there on next release?

I use owl as mail relay at least on 4 server and 3 organizations. And 
Updating owl with all packages makes difficult, because i must rebuild 
every time postfix.
