Hi,

When sendmail is set to SUID in /etc/make.conf with SENDMAIL_SET_USER_ID=y,
it would be very helpful if installworld could also rename (or, to be
consistent with /etc/mail/README, remove) /etc/mail/submit.cf. This is
pretty trivial, but I seem to burn myself every time I rebuild a particular
system with this option set by forgetting that submit.cf gets recreated
during the install.

I'm running 5.5R, so I don't know if this behaviour has been modified for
later releases.

cheers,
