> what an absolute debacle that was for the Internet
You make it sound like it ended the Internet or something. One could also argue (with only similar level of hyperbole) that it was sendmail which made the Internet a success. Obviously the truth is in between, but lets give credit where credit is due. Sendmail served us well in its time. It's not inherently the fault of its developers, that the Internet evolved to a much darker place over time.
