Sendmail isn't nearly that bad. M4 and the current list of distributed
fatures/hacks has made configuration pretty easy. These days I operate
on the principle that I never edit sendmail.cf, I just fiddle with my mc
file until it generates what I want. My sendmail mc file on my main mail
hub is only 69 lines, and 20 of those are comments.

It's probably less effort to just learn the little bit you need to do
what you're trying to than to change MTA's.

Mike.
