As do the others, I think so. Sendmail essentially stopped making improvements to the open source version when it launched its commercial offering in 1998. Anything that was difficult to do then is still hard to do. > if yes, is installing postfix from /ports enough? In most cases yes (I think). We changed from sasldb to SQL authentication and had some documentation issues mostly with cyrus as I recall. We use poudriere but mostly for the convenience of updating several servers. > 2. > any recommendation for a webmail ?
