Re: disable sendmail



->If you want to leave everything in place but not run it,
->change sendmail_flags in /etc/rc.conf to NO, and it won't
->be run next time you boot.   You can then re-enable it at a
->later date by changing it back to
->"-L sm-mta -C/etc/mail/localhost.cf -bd -q30m"
->
Don't forget to stop the cron job (because I know I always do :P) included
below for reference.

ssh root@machine crontab -e
# sendmail clientmqueue runner
*/30    *       *       *       *       /usr/sbin/sendmail -L sm-msp-queue
-Ac -q

There is also an "smms" user (spelling probably inacurate) which you can
kill too but you have to modify a few of the rc's to stop looking for it.
