I am trying to avoid the inevitable, "I upgraded to 4.6 and sendmail no longer accepts incoming mail." support issue given that the change wasn't documented and violated POLA. As I've said before, if FreeBSD 4.6 is to be the release in which all network services are disabled by default, and that is well documented, I'm perfectly happy to change to sendmail_enable=NO.
