As far as I can tell, there's no deprecation notice upon sendmail. Gregory Shapiro has imported latest sendmail (v8.18.1) in -CURRENT and STABLE/13-14 last february. > Does it mean that dma only works with external smtp? > i.e. does dma not have its own smtp? dma just forwards mail from localhost to local destinations, or to remote destinations relaying through a smart host via smtp. It's not meant to route e-mail messages like a full blown MTA would. > However, if sendmail is not deprecated/obsolescent, > I'd prefer to keep using that. I, for one, still run sendmail to forward local mail to a central hub out of old habits: that's the task dma is born to fullfill. BTW sendmail is still in base: even if one day FreeBSD developers will decide to remove it, there's always the ports collection. Even today, if you use sendmail for something more complex than forwarding local mail somewhere, you'd better rely on mail/sendmail port. f.
