Ik also find the "Postfix is more secure. Sendmail is big ball with big 
holes (at least in the past)."  very lame.
Please give good arguments before takin' a crack on a outstanding 
mailserver like Sendmail.
I do not say Postfix is worse..I think they have both pros and cons but 
I am not going to tell that Sendmail is bad and not give any good 
argument why it is such a bad decision.
If I had to choose it is Sendmail for it's simplicity and it's 
virtusertable function which is not 100% implemented in Postfix (imho).
