I edited the /etc/mail/mailer.conf before I did the last update and it 
did not seem to work.  I think that I will try the NO_SENDMAIL option in 
the make.conf file and see what happens.  One question though, the 
NO_MAILWRAPPER option will keep the system from building the mail 
wrapping application but do I need to worry about that since I am using 
the NO_SENDMAIL option?  Will it still try to make softlinks?

Tim
