And did anyone have an actual problem with sendmail other than noticing it taking time to start the daemon in the boot sequence. That's a problem that can be solved on its own since you don't really need a daemon then.
Removing mail from the expected services is just the wrong thing to do, especially if the reasoning is that the service isn't understood or used to advantage. Add a setup for a root alias in firstboot and a mail notifier in the gnome panel to make the system more useful instead of less.
I never said anything about removing mail. I only said that making postfix the default doesn't mean losing functionality.
It would have been earlier, but if in fact the current version is capable of running MimeDefang as a milter maybe they are finally equivalent.
