While we're on the subject, how do I stop sendmail starting, and
sow salt on the inodes so nothing grows there again?
I want exim instead.
I grepped quickly through /etc/defaults/rc.conf and didn't see anything
obvious. And ISTR there's a make.conf option too, isn't there?
(I've been away since freeBSD 4.7 ish).
