As it seems that sendmail is probably going to have updates more frequently than upgrade revisions in FBSD (i.e. 4.4 vs 4.5, etc), I am thinking it might be good to use the sendmail port to keep on top on the sendmail source code for my mail servers. It seems easier to use portversion to make sure sendmail is up to date rather than cvsup'ing the source (/usr/src) -- or is that going down a vi vs emacs debate? ;) (is there a way to just upgrade sendmail in /usr/src?) If using the ports is preferred, why isn't a startup script included in /usr/local/etc/rc script for the sendmail port to use? Really I just want to see how everyone else is handling this.
