You mean they should put it in the manul like this:

so the mailing list doesn't get cluttered with chatter about
normal administration procedures?

Ok, it IS in the manuals, but for someone like me switching from a platform that has sendmail enabled by default to one that doesn't, I don't expect to have to dig thru all the sysadmin manuals to configure it to work. It would be a very simple task to take that same paragraph, and put it in the release notes or in some *conspicuous* place.

Yes, we're getting off topic, and my problem is solved, but placement of such an important topic as a mail transfer agent should be, in my opinion, not buried 49 levels deep in sysadmin.
