So less "no dma(8)", and more "no default MTA at all; make them select one"? -Ravi -----Original Message----- From: <owner-freebsd-arch@freebsd.org> on behalf of Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@komquats.com> Reply-To: Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@komquats.com> Date: 2017-12-06, Wednesday at 18:22 To: <cem@freebsd.org> Cc: "freebsd-arch@freebsd.org" <arch@freebsd.org> Subject: Re: RFC: Sendmail deprecation ?

Replace sendmail with a dialog that installs the user's MTA of choice, which ports/pkgs has many to choose from. IMO we are replacing one bloat with other. At the very least there should be a knob not to build/install dma. P.S. Not related to this discussion, my choice of MTA BTW is one package for exterior facing servers and another for internal boxes. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <cy@FreeBSD.org> Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few. _______________________________________________ freebsd-arch@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arch To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-arch-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
