sendmail, deliver and procmail
Now that sendmail is already so much easier to configure, some
questions/suggestions:
Does sendmail have to depend on deliver? Sendmail comes with its own
mail.local to deliver to a local mailbox. Wouldn't it be sufficient to
use this as a default local mailer?
To add more luxury, it would be nice if sendmailconfig can detect if
deliver and/or procmail are available and offer those as an
alternative local mailer to use. Sendmail can suggest or recommend one
r both (where my favourite is procmail - but that is a matter of
taste).
That way we have less dependencies between packages. And at the same
time an even more flexible sendmail configuration.
Cheers,
Lukas
