>Description:

The sendmail(8) manpage should be hardlinked for hoststat(8) &
purgestat(8) manpages.

(I saw "purgestat" being used in
    /etc/periodic/daily/150.clean-hoststat
and it took a while to track it down as it had no manpage and
the "executable" is a link to "mailwrapper" which doesn't
mention "purgestat" (nor "hoststat"), etc...)

The manpage also has a "synopsis" for "smtpd" which doesn't come with
base OS, but we don't worry about it, since the manpage's problems are
not FreeBSD's to fix.
