Hi Giorgos,
it was always my understanding that sendmail_enable="YES" will turn
Sendmail on wholesale: commandline submits, inbound, outbound.
rc.sendmail(8) certainly doesn't counter that interpretation, and
reading /etc/defaults/rc.conf and /etc/rc.sendmail confirms it...
Or I'm reading it wrong, which is more than possible.
