Hello,
could someone please give me plain straightforward answer or point me to URI
where I can find out what is that MSA or Mail Submission Agent all about.
I've been seeking net for quite some time now and I still don't have any clue
what it actually does besides binding to port 587 (I am speaking of sendmail
ofcourse).
Thank you.

So far as sendmail is concerned, it's basically just a second port on
which to accept connections. However, you can specify different
DaemonPortOptions settings for each port. The default setup adds M=E
(which disables ETRN) for the MSA.
You can disable the MSA using FEATURE(no_default_msa).
