>Description:
      The case statement in the start_mta() and start_mspq() functions in rc.sendmail requires the condition [Nn][Oo][Nn][Ee] instead of the condition [Nn][Oo] which is established during the install in rc.conf.  Thus, sendmail starts even if configure as sendmail_enable="NO'' in rc.conf.  In the case of a machine that does not have a domain name, the startup hangs while sendmail tries to resolve name - must press control-c to pass hangup.
>How-To-Repeat:
      N/A
>Fix:
      Change both case statements in the functions to act on the condition [Nn][Oo] instead of [Nn][Oo][Nn][Ee]
