I have just one request: ensure that different
mail-transport-agents are not required to repeat
sendmail's quirks. Qmail's sendmail-clone might be
a good independent implementation, do not require
anything it doesn't implement and you are quite
certain not to require anything too weird.
PS. Cc'ed to debian-policy, this should propably be
discussed there. Please drop debian-devel if
you reply.
