If you want you can enable the "mailwrapper" use flag, which enables multiple MTAs to be installed at the same time. Then you just edit /etc/mail/mailer.conf to switch which MTA to be used... Or you just "emerge -C ssmtp && emerge sendmail" and everything should be fine. -- Regards, Patrick Börjesson PGP signature: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21792A5D PGP fingerprint: 74AF D4EF 6BDE CF77 16BE 6A29 CDB8 7607 2179 2A5D
