Hi, I wish to stop sendmail from starting during boot up completely
since I don't need it. And I found this on the net:
> By the way, if getting rid of Sendmail is your goal, then
> sendmail_enable="NONE", while working, is not the best solution.
> sendmail_enable, like the other sendmail_* knobs, is an rc.sendmail

Does this mean that I only need to add the entry:
#------------------------------
mta_startup_script=""
#-----------------------------
in /etc/rc.conf to stop sendmail completely?
Thanks.
