Hey

Some admin is not Exim fan, I think it would be great idea if admin could choose which MTA to use such as qmail or Exim on the following options for DirectAdmin

Hello,

DA is not overly reliant on exim, so if you want to install qmail, you can. However it has to fit overtop of the /etc/virtual/* setup and we wouldn't support it, so it would have to be setup by you. We're only going to inclue 1 MTA at this time.

Sorry, guys, but as an old mangler of music lyrics, I just can't help myself...

Oh, let me tell you of the story of a man named Charlie,
On that tragic and fateful day,
He put is manuals in his pocket, kissed his wife and family,
And went to change the DA MTA.
But did he ever return, no he never returned,
and his fate is still unlearned...
He may search forever in the DA innards,
he's the man who never returned.

"That you, Charlie?"

Me thinks that changing the MTA is a very non-trival task, and will be even more non-trivial once I've got spamblocker ready for inclusion.
