+1 I don't need it and don't have it installed, but I agree that it can be useful. If somebody wants to misuse software, then a MUA, resp. a sendmail program likely could cause more evil, then a password cracker. So, should we forbid sendmail programs? How many times a day does somebody successfully crack our passwords? How many spam mails do we receive each day?
