In my experience, sendmail performs no worse under linux than elsewhere and sometimes better (asynchronous metadata writes suspected to be the cause, not verified) --cw - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
