Hi!

In 4.6 quite much, when it comes to sendmail, has changed. Did
read the handbook, but I unfortunately did not find what I was
looking. (Probably looking in the wrong place.)

As I do not use any mail from my FreeBSD computer, I did put
sendmail_enable="NONE". But it seems that did prevent me from
getting mail from periodic. In 4.5 I had sendmail_enable="NO"
and it did work.

Should I change it to sendmail_enable="NO" in 4.6 to recieve
these mails? Without changing anything else, can I be sure
no one can use my server as a relay or sending me mail from
the outside?

Am a bit confused so I hope someone can help me out!

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Paul
