	Nothing; zero.  Since I did not set it up [ with sendmail ], I
	just let it do it's thing.  

	I use mutt mostly; evolution for GUI use; there is some SMTP  
	interface between evo and dovecot.  Since this has worked for
	three years, I've just relied on it ....

	any pages that explain this, please clue me in  if you have
	time.
