OK, it is a matter of taste. However, usual security advice is to not install or disable all network daemons unless you actually need them. On clinet machines running on a clinic LAN, I personally don't think they need to have an SMPT daemon listening on port 25. > All this is hardly a matter worth discussing for 0.1, methinks. Nope.
