Hi, we have the sendmail.service enabled by default even in the minimal installation.
I only use Thunderbird as my email client.
May I uninstall sendmail? Is it needed for something I'm not aware of?

Regards.
It was already mentioned that sendmail is MTA (may it be called a mail
server for simplicity). I really don't know why a regular desktop user
is forced to have such infrastructure installed and operational out of
the box only to allow some poorly designed programs to pass messages to
the user. I think it's one of that old UNIX approaches that need to be
revised and changed to better suite desktop Linux users.

I think you can disable sendmail service (it is not installed by default
in Debian) but removing package might break some other package
dependencies so don't do it.
