Sounds like you're a reasonably good test candidate; thanks for
volunteeering.

If you have time, please could you also try the same with postfix? And
if your own setup isn't very interesting, pick some other tasks like
configuring mailman etc. to amuse yourself.

Like I said -- I'm far more adamant that sendmail should go, than I am
that Exim should be its replacement. I just happen to think that Exim is
a better choice.
