Package: monit
Version: 1:5.2.3-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I recently started using monit but one important thing missing is
support for local-only MDA, like e.g. dma or any other which doesn't
listen on port 25.
Most of the servers I monitor don't need a full featured MDA and hence
don't have daemon listening on port 25.
Opening an extra port just for that functionality might be an
unnecessary security issue.
Could, a trivial option of monit utilising /usr/sbin/sendmail or
/usr/lib/sendmail provided by most, if not all, local-only MDAs, be
implemented, please?

Regards,

Raf
