Hi, I wish to stop sendmail from starting during boot up completely
since I don't need it. And I found this on the net:

Does this mean that I only need to add the entry:
#------------------------------
mta_startup_script=""
#-----------------------------
in /etc/rc.conf to stop sendmail completely?
Thanks.

New sendmail startup scripts have been installed to make it
easier to use alternative MTAs with FreeBSD. The rc.conf
variable mta_start_script can be set to a script for starting
an alternative MTA or to "" to prevent any MTA from being
started at boot.
So the answer is yes. :)
Mark.
