I'm trying to get qmail running on Redhat 7.0. The REMOVE.binmail document 
states

2. Remove permissions from the binmail binary:
      # chmod 0 /usr/libexec/mail.local

Because I have /bin/mail rather than /usr/libexec/mail.local, I typed
      # chmod 0 /bin/mail

I'm confused about the next point, though.

3. If the binmail binary was /bin/mail, make sure that "mail" still invokes 
a usable mailer. Under SVR4 you may want to link mail to mailx.

Typing "mail" now results in "bash: /bin/mail: Permission denied", which I 
expected based on item 2. So how do I complete item 3? "mail" no longer 
invokes a usable mailer, and I did a search across my harddrive for 
something named "mailx", but there was nothing by that name.

Thanks for any help.
