Re: exim4 maybe too complex to remain useful

Thanks for the exim4 smart host help.  I would almost go with postfix 
except the smart host requires authentication but doesn't support any 
encryption for doing authentication on their end.  It's probably what most 
internet service providers are now doing since ssl and cram md5 and tls 
are a hassle for them to set up and maintain on their ends.
