At the time the Sendmail program had a very poor reputation with respect to security, with four root vulnerabilities per year for two successive years.

The Postfix security model is based on keeping software simple and stupid.

I think, ultimately, open always wins out. It wins out because you cannot lock data in; you can't lock people in. They will find a way out.

With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton's personal e-mail domain, in its various configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked.

I think a lot of stuff like people's emails getting hacked or that an email you sent is stored on a hard drive somewhere, that kind of stuff worries me a little bit. It's a weird thought that someone else could get into my information that easily. That stuff's pretty scary.

I believe that Secretary Clinton has said, has acknowledged, that that was not the best way to handle her emails back then... and has turned over all of the information and the emails and documents and now the server.

SPAM is taking e-mail, which is a wonderful tool, and exploiting the idea that it's very inexpensive to send mail.

E-mail is the most influential application ever to appear on a personal computer, and it remains sadly deficient.

Postfix keeps running even if one Postfix process dies; Windows requires that someone restarts the service.
