Package: dovecot-common
Version: 1:1.2.10-1~bpo50+1
Severity: minor

Hi,

the default configuration file /usr/share/dovecot/dovecot.conf, and
thus /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf by virtue of being copied there by
postinst, contains this line (777):

  #sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail

I'd like to see this changed to

  #sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail

as /usr/lib/sendmail has been deprecated maybe 5 to 10 years ago and is
only a symlink to /usr/sbin/sendmail, anyway. I gather that this might
be an upstream issue (wrong default path compiled in), too.

One less program to maintain that symlink for...


Kind regards,
--Toni++
