that would be great, if someone did that, spf.pobox.com
could link to it.

I have updated the downloads page, but if we're going to
start listing MTAs, we need to be comprehensive.


Thanks for adding this.

But other than the obvious, software wise, what is the difference between
Wildcat! SMTP Mail Server and MS Exchange?

I mean, what is a MTA?

In fact, you are technically incorrect by saying MTA because that means the
"sender component" of a SMTP server is SPF compliant.   No. If you want to
be specific, it is a list of MDAs (the receiver) that is important in this
case.

But why confuse people? I would suggest to Just note down the supportive
SMTP servers/product names.  Simple.

Sure, when it comes down to maybe SUBMITTER or SRS, then it becomes
important to maybe indicate MTA as the router/sender part of the server that
supports new routing protocols on the outbound side.

Understand?

In any case, thanks for the consideration.
