Can anyone reccommend a good alternative INNd for a usenet server? our
problem is that to post to moderated groups INN will only use a local
sendmail to send the post - I cannot see anyway to configure it to use a
remote mailserver.

We are trying to limit the number of machines running sendmail, and
therefore either need a way to get INN to use a remote mail server, or a
more flexible news server on which it is possible to do this.

If neither is posible I will have to hack the innmail script to use a
remote server.

Cheers
