>Description:
	Currently, /bin/rmail is the one provided by sendmail.
	If one receives mails via UUCP and uses qmail as the MTA,
	installing recent stable/current with sendmail 8.12.x or
	making world without `NO_SENDMAIL=true' may be a problem
	because /var/qmail/bin/sendmail called from new rmail
	always returns an error.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Install recent stable or current with sendmail 8.12.x.
	Use qmail as MTA with mailwrapper.
	Receive mail via UUCP.
>Fix:
	/bin/rmail is a program that should be provided by MTA.
	For example, if one uses qmail as the MTA, /bin/rmail
	should be replaced by /var/qmail/bin/sendmail.
	As FreeBSD uses mailwrapper to make MTA alteration easy,
	/bin/rmail is another program that deserves configuration
	by /etc/mail/mailer.conf.

	No patch provided due to my poor ability in programming.
