Setting default MTA during system installation

2005-09-02 Thread Gerard Seibert
Doing the installation of FreeBSD, there is an opportunity to choose an 
MTA. If I choose Postfix for instance, would that be installed as the 
default MTA or would the Sendmail program still be the default for the 
system, thereby requiring me to configure Postfix to operate with the 
system, and ultimately disabling Sendmail?

if you install postfix from ports, it will ask you about this and give
hints about it too

see : /usr/ports/mail/postfix/pkg-message
