Postfix works great

Category : Technology/postfixworksgreat.txt

A couple of things that have made sendmail a pain to use are : on some machines you have to restart sendmail manually even after a reboot, and you have to restart sendmail whenever your IP address changes (if you're on a dynamically assigned IP address).

Postfix seems to have none of these problems. Apple's probably made the right decision to go with Postfix. Plus it's a cleaner design. So here's looking forward to Panther. (Trying the SMTP-AUTH feature next).
