Updates to sendmail should have no impact on Postfix, but you should
ALWAYS keep a close eye on mergemaster!

Whenever mergemaster hits a new mail.conf, simply keep the old one
except for the RCS line at the top. (Select 'm'erge and select 'r'ight
for the first diff and 'l'eft for subsequent differences. Then
'i'nstall to install the old mail.conf with the new RCS line so you
won't get bugged every time you run mergemaster.
