Re: suggestions for a good MTA?



Thanks to everyone who pointed out that exim (exim4, in this case) is
actually able to handle everything I wanted.  In the end, the
headers_rewrite option at the transport level was able to handle the
bulk of the changes.  I still had to use the rewrite section to
globally munge the envelope FROM entry (because my ISP requires it, and
it can't be modified at transport-time), but that one's an acceptable
compromise.
