    Hello Family,

    I recently whacked the default outgoing mail process on my
    FreeBSD-4.8 system and could no longer send mail with Pine using
    "localhost" although I could in fact send mail with the command:

    mail -s "mail test" bill@mydomain.com

    So I went into /usr/ports/postfix-current and did an install and
    at the end the instructions were to add the following to
    /etc/rc.conf

    ####################################################
    sendmail_enable="YES"
    sendmail_flags="-bd"
    sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
    sendmail_submit_enable="NO"
    sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO"
    ####################################################

    Now, I see basicall the command of `sendmail -bd` nested in the
    above settings but I'm not quite sure about the other three.

    In other words, how would you correctly "source" the
    /etc/rc.conf file if you can at all or is this file only meant
    to be referenced at boot time?

    Thanks
