Oh, it definitely hit the news:-

http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/11/30/0430201

There's also http://qmail.org/netqmail/ but I've no idea whether it
fixes this IMO-worst bug: those infuriatingly software-as-a-human
error messages, as spoofed in
http://www.mcsweeneys.net/2005/4/12wayne.html

Is there actually a GNU MTA?  I think Exim is pretty good, but I have
Postfix and even Sendmail on some servers.  I remember using smail and
nullmailer in the past, but didn't really get on with xmail.
