 What about Postfix?  Or qmail?  Or NewMTAOfTheMonth?  Even though
 sendmail(8) is in the base system, I think it's enough that the man
 page says that it is possible to make sendmail listen on a sepecfic
 address; and it does reference the sendmail(8) manual page.  I think
 this is sufficient.  The configuration intricacies of the MTA are
 beyond the scope of jail(8).
 
 All IMO, of course.
