% Hi all. I'm curious as to the performance difference between scripts
% that use sendmail vs. smtp for their mailing abilities.
Using sendmail will almost always be very very much faster because
- you're talking to the local machine
- you're offloading the mail process to something else
and so if you can do so -- even if your machine is only set up with a
"dumb" mailer that only knows how to talk to your U's smarthost -- I
would recommend that you run, not walk, to do so :-)
