There is documentation on Postfix and even an ORA book about it. I can't 
see why someone would need to choose Sendmail over Postfix simply 
because they found the Postfix list to be unpleasant. That's pretty 
goofy thinking, IMO, considering the many advantages Postfix offers.

The reality is that different people have different viewpoints about how 
lists work than you do, and you're not likely to get them to change. Not 
everyone sees politeness as a big priority when they are here giving of 
their own time for free.

Newbies sometimes get flamed on mailing lists, it happens. If they are 
really interested in Fedora/Linux/etc. then they will persevere and learn.
