Okay, I have this running in (4.5) stable.

A few lines caused some problems.

To get it working I did this

 case ${_action} in
 boot)

Is sh different in current?

/etc/mail/Makefile

host#make restart
Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting "fi")
*** Error code 2

Stop in /etc/mail.

Is make different in current?

Unfortunately (for me anyway) you can't just drop
rc.sendmail(.sh) in /usr/local/etc/rc.d because

"start" starts the mta but not the mspq and
"stop" stops the mta but not the mspq

Hmmm, It's deja vu all over again.

It's not too difficult to write a startup
script, but it duplicates much of the code
in rc.sendmail. Which seems like a waste to me.
