Add 'sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"' to /etc/rc.conf and things should return
to the behaviour that you want.  This extra sendmail knob was added to
/etc/rc about a month ago.

Subject: Unable to stop sendmail from loading at boot.

Hello all.

I'm running 5.0current 4-12-01, from a net install, X-Kern-Developer
base.

The problem I'm having is that sendmail is running at system start, even
though
the default /etc/defaults/rc.conf sets sendmail_enable="NO", and I've
tried
setting
the same in /etc/rc.conf in case it's not parsing the defaults file.
But it
doesn't change
anything.

Does anyone have any recommendations?  I'm going to remove sendmail.cf
since
that
is read as an "if" in /etc/rc to before starting sendmail, but that
seems
quite the hack
just to disable the mail daemon.

I'll try any suggestions after work, and will re-post Tuesday.

Thanks,

Eli Stair
