I've long had a dream of a wonderful little MTA replacement that's like
sendmail, but using Guile instead.  I haven't had the time to even
contemplate it yet, and don't anticipate doing so in the next, erm...
probably 5 years or so. =)

But in my dreams, I'm imagining something that would be able to use most
Sendmail .mc files and produce the right Guile syntax to do the right
thing.

If we do an MTA for Mailutils, I'd like to see it be big flashy, and
capable of lots.  My opinion though.  It obviously goes to whoever
writes it. =)

Tks,
Jeff Bailey
