Αντικείμενο: [Exim] OT: Need some feed back on Exchange as an SMTP server
All,

         I can think of no better place to ask for feed back on Exchange as
an SNTP server.  Here is the situation that I find my self in time after
time.  I have clients who want, or at least think they want Exchange
installed.  I personally do not like the product or the model of putting
all the "eggs in one basket" ie: all of the mail is in a database.   But I
can not address the worthiness of Exchange as an SMTP server, let's not go
down the whole path of not putting any MS product on the Internet argument,
I agree.  but let's assume that this is a safe install...


         Are there any technical, standards based arguments why one should
not use exchange?    Does it misapply or  just plain break the
standards?  I need to know that my "personal feelings" are not what is
making the judgment.


         I by no means have nearly the experience with SMTP servers as many
of you do, and I hope that I can get some guidance  on this subject from
those of you who know the SMTP protocols and standards better than I could
ever wish to.


Regards.

Kevin B
