DEFAULTS SET SENDFILE SMTP is all you need to change the default.

We are loathe to change the default behavior of a command without an 
overriding business reason (e.g. security, standards).  While at times 
inconvenient, that philosophy has served our clients in good stead.  Part 
of the reason that SENDFILE works the way it does is because we don't know 
if ABC.COM was meant as an NJE node or a TCP/IP mail server.
