Since nail does not need an mta, I don't think we should require |
| 8 |
it, thereby leaving that decision up to the user. |

It may be that we don't want to install a /usr/bin/mail clone |
| 11 |
by default, if that would also require us to install either |
| 12 |
sendmail or postfix at the same time. Perhaps we need a |
| 13 |
"standardUnixMailer.ebuild" that just has mailx and sendmail |
| 14 |
as depends, and does nothing else? |
