You can tell mdadm not to install postfix by simply passing in the --no-install-recommends param, such as `sudo apt-get install mdadm --no-install-recommends`
In my setup, I used msmtp, symlinked it `ln -s /usr/bin/msmtp /usr/sbin/sendmail`, and mdadm now sends mail through this lightweight email sender. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379882 Title: mdadm installs postfix To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/379882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
