FWIW, I'm with Jon and Adam on this one. I just don't see how not having an MTA by default is a win, except in disk space terms, and it takes up a tiny amount of disk space (especially if we pick a lighter-weight one than sendmail to be the default). I think it makes sense to keep one, for all the good reasons they cited. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
