Hello, While investigating how to delay the startup of my mail system until later in the boot process I discovered something a bit odd. I use postfix, and it is all setup as it is supposed to with the mail wrapper etc. I thought I would check how it is started in /etc/rc. However "sendmail_enable" set to "YES" in /etc/rc.conf does not work unless it finds /etc/mail/sendmail.cf ! This surely cannot be correct except for users of (the real) sendmail. I suppose it is harmless, but if you use another MTA what do you need sendmail.cf for ? -- Regards Cliff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
