If one has not seen Mike Karel's email, here's the URL. https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/dev-commits-src-main/2022-December/011300.html The upshot is 1) No entry in src/UPDATING about dma replacing sendmail, and thereby breaking a function system on upgrade. 2) Having sendmail_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf no longer works after an upgrade, because dma replaces /etc/mail/mailer.conf. sendmail appears to start, but exits immediately. One needs to go through a serious of git commits to find out about this easter egg. 3) It seems that now one must also add sendmail_submit_enable="YES" sendmail_msp_queue_enable="YES" sendmail_outbound_enable="YES" to rc.conf to recover a functioning sendmail. When I upgrade the system next month, will dma remove the ability to use sendmail without unfixing whatever damage it does? POLA? -- Steve
