Wait...  Was the change to use /bin/mail, or /usr/sbin/sendmail?  If the
former, I think that is ok.  If the latter, I disagree.  I do not want
to constantly replace /usr/sbin/sendmail with the qmail binary.  I strongly
believe in seperation of who owns what, and /usr/sbin is owned by the
NetBSD installation.
