The config file format is the main reason I don't use sendmail :)

Using sendmail is like pulling your own teeth out with a rusty hammer. 
THe most trivial mail setups are just about manageable.  Doing something 
actually complicated results in a bastard hybrid of an m4 script 
followed by lots of manual tweaks - utterly unmaintainable.

If you disagree with this, then I'd _love_ to see the sendmail 
equivalent of my own email setup.  If anyone thinks their sendmail fu is 
up to the challenge, then let me know :)

Mart.
