Hi
I really dislike the way 4.6 handles mta/sendmail in its starting rc scripts
Why don't we have something as "mta_enable" which enables mta configuring in
its own rc.$mta_name?
I mean something like this:
case ${mta_enable} in
[Yy][Ee][Ss])
if [ -r ${mta_start_script} ]; then
sh ${mta_start_script} # eventually + ${mta_configuration}
fi
;;
esac
It's much cleaner imho. And in old 4.4 (and earlier afaik) it was such -
sendmail_enable and than it's configuration. If we want to switch from sendmail
to generic mta (with its own rc) we should do so the cleanest possible way
