Note that sendmail is a universal mail switching UNIX application, and if you
think it's weak, don't complain on A/UX 2.0 then. Personally I think its
amusing that marketing people talk a lot about UNIX networking capabilitites.

...well, they have never done any sendmail.cf hacking... And I hope that
the UNIX community does not create such burdensome standards programs
in future.
