Well, yes...I do use qmail...have been using it for a few years because
I feel its more secure (than sendmail)...dont know anything about
postfix.

But am really amazed to hear about this feature of postfix and look for
a qmail implementation of this....though I dont think any exists.

Qmail is quite granular and should be able to handle anything...at least
thats what I thought ;-) Anyone know of any implementation of transport
maps similar to postfix, implemented with qmail?

Idea in itself is quite good...and does enable to keep mail (not in
transit) behind the firewall. Comments please. Anybody?

One learns something everyday...no matter how idiotic his original
curosity ;-)

Ciao.
Sanjay.
