What I need is, a MTA that can be configured in 10 minutes (no, no GUI
please), understands that not all hosts are connected to the internet, and
does not choke on UUCP-style addresses chosen freely mixed with real
internet addresses, and does not require a 80-page manual to achieve that,
as sendmail does. Or 10 small files as qmail does. Or freezes until
kingdom come with no warning message when DNS is not available or there is
an extra leading space in its .cf file.
So, I want a mail receiver / queuer, a local delivery agent, and a
regex-based machine that sorts the queues and does the obvious. The regex
machines' configuration I can edit as required to sort the mail, in 10
minutes.
