Hi,

mail/metamail, and probably some other packages as well, needs the path
of a command compatible with sendmail (ie, some of its options). At the
moment /usr/sbin/sendmail or /usr/lib/sendmail is used explicitly (and
thus wrongly for some operating systems).

Should we try to define SENDMAIL_CMD in defs.OPSYS.mk or use
mail/mailwrapper on systems other than NetBSD? Is mailwrapper even
usable on other operating systems?


ciao
