    <p>Two really Great points.  <br>
    </p>
    <p>You are right.  I wouldn't normally break dependencies either and
      was flippant in explaining that option without proper caveats.  I
      would recommend leaving SA installed.  <br>
    </p>
    <p>For the stubs, great point. What would you estimate the RAM usage
      is?  I'm assuming pretty tiny.</p>
    <p>We're about to put out MIMEDefang 2.85 and can build one without
      SA as a dependency if you think it's more than a few Kilobytes.</p>
    <p>Best,</p>
    <p>KAM<br>

I wouldn't recommend that.  Running a system with broken dependencies is
an invitation to a world of pain.

Well, every mimedefang.pl process will have unnecessary glue code using
up RAM unless you hack mimedefang.pl... which again invites a world of pain
from your package manager.
