Qmail At 10 Years — Reflections On Security

os2man writes "Qmail is one of the most widely used MTAs on the Net and has a solid reputation for its level of security. In 'Some thoughts on security after ten years of qmail 1.0' (PDF), Daniel J. Bernstein, reviews the history and security-relevant architecture of qmail; articulates partitioning standards that qmail fails to meet; analyzes the engineering that has allowed qmail to survive this failure; and draws various conclusions regarding the future of secure programming. A good read for anyone involved in secure development."

qmail and \n

Is qmail the MTA that refuses lines without a \r before the \n?

As a former Amiga user and now a committed penguin-shagger, I find this highly annoying.
