If someone gets confused when configuring the default supplied mailserver, then the setup for that mailserver should be improved. Won't it just ask a debconf question that's not more difficult to understand than configuring a smtp host in caff is.
I don't understand your suggestion about nullmailer. SInce nullmailer provides mail-transport-agent, this should satisfy the dependencies just fine already, and we need not change anything for that. The whole point is that installing something like a MTA (whether it's postfix, exim or nullmailer) makes sure you've instantly configured a whole array of programs in one go. I dare say that it's more complex to set up an SMTP server in each and every application than it is to answer two debconf questions from a MTA. -- Please stop depending on mailx (or recommend nullmailer instead of exim4) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/113753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
