This sounds like a "policy" decision needs to be made, and then the 
installer fixed.  Are such policy decisions made in these lists, or by 
the "core" staff?

yes.  I found the wayward undelivered files in /var/spool/clientmqueue.

I see that postfix and sendmail are both in etc/defaults/rc.conf.

I've never used postfix, but have heard good things.

 Q1: Should install default to postfix?

 Q2: Is there a reasonable postfix configuration that sends out (to 
     handle the recommended sending of send-pr and such), sends to 
     localhost (to handle daily and such), and does not receive from 
     outside mail (to prevent being a relay box by default)?
