In 4.6 quite much, when it comes to sendmail, has changed. Did read the handbook, but I unfortunately did not find what I was looking. (Probably looking in the wrong place.) As I do not use any mail from my FreeBSD computer, I did put sendmail_enable="NONE". But it seems that did prevent me from getting mail from periodic. In 4.5 I had sendmail_enable="NO" and it did work. Should I change it to sendmail_enable="NO" in 4.6 to recieve these mails? Without changing anything else, can I be sure no one can use my server as a relay or sending me mail from the outside? Am a bit confused so I hope someone can help me out! Thanks in advance.
