According to the guy who wrote OS/2 sendmail (I forget his name, but
I read it on the OS/2 PopS mailing list) the code is derived from the
BSDI version (as is most of the AIX and OS/2 TCP/IP stack).  I've
heard that it's not as feature rich as the typical *nix sendmail
variant, but it hasn't left me out in the cold yet.  I use it at home
and on a departmental server at work.
