Is anyone using a light weight MTA to just hand emails off to Mailman and deny anything else?
I was using exim for this purpose and now am using postfix. I can recommend either, but postfix is superior in every way.
I'm looking at Sun Sendmail (I know, it's definitely not light weight) to do this, simply because it's already on the boxes in question - I'm still sorting out how to get Sendmail to deliver to aliases, but not local accounts.
Sendmail is definitely the most difficult MTA to configure and maintain. You can get postfix downloaded, installed, and running in a fraction of the time that it will take to get sendmail to do most of what you want to do.
