DougB> The problem is, the users are getting confused. Neither of the methods DougB> you describe is "standard," which is a big part of the confusion. I guess the standard way would be: sendmail_enable=NO sendmail_submit_enable=NO sendmail_outbound_enable=NO sendmail_msp_queue_enable=NO This is (and was) always available. sendmail_enable=NONE is just a shortcut that has the same effect as setting all four to NO. With that in mind, the only other thing that could be added is a sendmail_dont_run_at_all variable that, if set to YES, is exactly the same as: 1. sendmail_enable=NONE, or 2. mta_start_script="", or 3. sendmail_enable=NO sendmail_submit_enable=NO sendmail_outbound_enable=NO sendmail_msp_queue_enable=NO My preference is not to add a fourth equivalent method to the above list.
