I like the move to OpenSMTPD much better than the move to Nginx.
OpenSMTPD is simpler and easier to configure than Sendmail.
Nginx has less features than Apache and this is a problem for me.
Nginx does not process cgi-bin files and must pass these off to another process/web server.
Why do I need Nginx if I must have another web server around anyway in order to process cgi-bin files?
If I were doing high volume web transactions and needed a reverse-proxy, then Nginx is ideal. But I have a low volume server that uses cgi-bin so using Nginx just makes the process more complicated (less secure).
