  My own server uses Postfix, and I wrote a Postfix module for my X-Grey
software (so it works under both Sendmail and Postfix).  I don't have any of
the problems with Postfix as I do with Sendmail.

  -spc (Heck, you could use both Postfix *and* Sendmail at the same time
	with the same installation of X-Grey ... )
