Hello everyone,
What happens if "Disable Sendmail service" is selected when installing FreeBSD?
This is described in the handbook:
Does this mean that a mail service is required for FreeBSD?
If the option "Disable Sendmail service" is selected when installing FreeBSD, does it mean that there is no trouble described in the "Warning" above.
Thanks.
What happens if "Disable Sendmail service" is selected when installing FreeBSD?
This is described in the handbook:
Warning: If Sendmail's outgoing mail service is disabled, it is important that it is replaced with an alternative mail delivery system. Otherwise, system functions such as periodic(8) will be unable to deliver their results by email. Many parts of the system expect a functional MTA. If applications continue to use Sendmail's binaries to try to send email after they are disabled, mail could go into an inactive Sendmail queue and never be delivered.
