Sendmail is not the only mailer out there.  For exmple, I've been
administering MMDF here for years, on a site that talks to nameservers, has
numerous UUCP connections (both smart and simple-minded), and acts as a
forwarder for several domains.  I still view sendmail.cf as an OPS-5
program that has been run through sed using a rot-13'ed edit script and
then hashed into 2-character words...
