Hi all

I don't know which maillings list to write, so I'll just write to this one.
Wouldn't it be better to remove ftpd and sendmail from the base system?
People have preferences on that area (FTP and SMTP) and I don't understand
why we need a smtp daemon in the base system, but not a pop3 daemon. Personally
I use ftpd, but I don't like sendmail and would like to install all my daemons
manually (well not all, syslogd it good and there is no good alternativs...I
think).
I am a guy who likes a small kernel and base system, be course I use FreeBSD
as a server. But even for those how use freebsd as a workstation, it would
be nice to get rid of sendmail.
Just an idea, what do you think?
