I'm ditching sendmail and using DJB's qmail.

I strongly object to this kind of unwarrented criticism. I for one haven't
given every tom dick and harry my email address, but I certainly do a lot
of usenet reply's. 

Well do you suggest then that I post to the usenet"encrypting" my address
with something like
<FSCK_ALL_THE_MOTHERFSCKERSevilgrendel gmx netWHO_TRY_TO_SPAM_ME>??
<sarcasm>

IMHO there are many others like me who use there email adress when posting
to the usenet, that doesn't make it our fault, or mean that we have done
something stupid.

Well about sendmail, I'm ditching it, it is so hard to setup even with
IDA, so I'm saying fsck sendmail and welcome qmail :-)


Sorry for this vitriolic outburst guys, but I got mad at this kind of
nonsense.
