So, I installed this beta version about four days ago in an upgrade from
2.35.  I also took the opportunity to upgrade Spamassassin to 2.64.  A
few points:

- It has not crashed or misbehaved at all.

- It doesn't noticeably leak memory.

- CPU usage is dramatically lower--probably because of the addition of
  the embedded Perl interpreter.  Because of this, I think our server
  might even handle an a large ETRN without tempfailing.

A few stats to make that relevant:
- 1.54Mb connection
- Pentium 200MMX
- 256MB SDRAM @83Mhz
- Single 5400RPM UDMA33 IDE Drive (no RAM drive for spool)
- Linux 2.4
- Sendmail 8.12.6
- Runs webmail also (SquirrelMail)
- Around 1-2 thousand mails a day

Overall, good stuff;  Keep it up  :)  Time to upgrade Sendmail now.
