Hi Adam,

ups, thanks for the hint!

If this short form will go away (announced already since FreeBSD 5.0) we have to fix also all other mailer, where I looked what thy are telling the user.

I have more concerns that at some time sendmail and *mailwrapper* will be provided as dedicated (pkg) package for the FreeBSD OS and we have to fiddle this out in the pkg-install script ...

If you like I can change it back to the 4 lines instructions (but I would tend to 'rm' the 'NONE is deprecated' statement from rc.sendmail)
