No, sendmail_flags="-q15m", not the current "-q15m -bd".  Hey, it was
mostly a joke.  Obviously I'd have to motivate and convince people
first.

I only have one mail server on the network that receives mail, and 7 or
8 other machines that just send.  Changing that on all of them was too
much work.  I can imagine there'll be others who agree.

Obviously there'd be the option in sysinstall, and all the rest, sorted.

And copious warnings in UPDATING and a HEADS-UP to the -STABLE list, and
probably in the release notes.  _If_ I can convince others that I'm
right.
