No, that is via command line. If sendmail were not there how would you
get mail out? Or, more importantly, which is easier to set up, sendmail
(exim, postfix, qmail) or a single configuration option which consists of
"smtp.host.com". I don't know of an MTA which runs perfectly off a single
configuration option and I've run or currently run Exim, Sendmail, Postfix and
nullmailer.

Procmail, the line noise of mail filters, no thanks. And neither of these
are able to retrieve mail. Oh, right, that pesky MTA again.

I've yet to fathom a need for a 2 million message mailbox. Not to mention
the support structure behind it since 2 million would break or strain both
maildir and mbox.

Yes, which is why I said "account inheritance." When I create a subfolder
under "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" I don't have to configure the folder for my address,
my
real name, my signature. It inherits all of that from the account! I create
a folder in mutt and I have to exit, vim .mutt/folders and add a freakin'
folder_hook! Do you see the difference here?
