It's definitely another heavyweight contender, we initially considered
both (exim still isn't out of the game). I remember once trying to
configure exim to use procmail, and it was much more complicated than I
expected, so it left me with the impression it was maybe too complex to
my needs back then. It was sometime ago, so things might have changed in
the meantime...

Best,

Andre
