    There is no such thing as a universal editor.  OK.  There is no such
thing as a universal MTA, MUA, filtering software, variant of angband, Window
manager, HTTP server, IMAP server, POP server, FTP server, etc. 

    I wish people would get that through their head.

    If an admin is running a machine that has loads so heavy that whatever
MTA is chosen cannot handle it and they do not have the technical ability to
change out the MTA, they have no right running that server in the first
place.  PERIOD.  Especially not one that is based on Debian!
