Happy to do so. I also happen to believe that Fedora should have certain
server-useful characteristics out of the box (like Linux always has
done). That's my opinion, I've made it known, and now I'm done.
It's not just about the MTA.
I think there's a much more fundamental question here, which is
whether a default Fedora installation is intended to be a real
UNIX-like system or just the dependencies for GNOME.
