LMTP

[Ken Murchison]

Quoting Richard Houston <rhouston at rlhc.net>:

You're using LMTP either way.  deliver is an LMTP client which takes a message
of of stdin and feeds it to the server via LMTP.


> Can any process us LMTP or does it have to have a LMTP clients component?

It needs to be able to speak LMTP.

> Is there any draw backs to the use of LMTP.

No.  The drawback to using deliver is that you're spawning an extra process for
every delivery.
