that is none other than Vmailer from Wietse Venema, which other than
having a truely scary name fit for a vampire, has something personal
against Dan Bernstein and Qmail. He's very active on BugTraq, and seems to
know what he's doing most of the time, but his attitude and few errors I
have seen him get caught in, pushed me away from trying Vmailer.

He renamed it Postfix lately, btw, and now it's just titled "Secure
Mailer" on alphaworks.
