Message after installing

usendmail has been successfully installed!

Now you have to change your sendmail(8) wrapping:

If you are using mailwrapper(8), do the following:

in /etc/mail/mailer.conf replace the lines

sendmail	/var/qmail/bin/sendmail
send-mail	/var/qmail/bin/sendmail

with

sendmail	/usr/local/sbin/usendmail
send-mail	/usr/local/sbin/usendmail

Otherwise replace the link from /usr/sbin/sendmail to
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail with one to /usr/local/sbin/usendmail.

more likely to have unresolved issues, not be up-to-date, or even be removed in
