2. The servers rlogind, rshd, rexecd were not wrapped.
3. "rcmnds" as an abbreviation gets an order of magnitude less hits on
Google than the much more well known "rcmds".

The new mailq display is only active if both the old
daily_status_mailq_enable is set to "YES" and the new
daily_status_include_submit_mailq is set to "YES" so people who disabled
440.status-mailq won't have any surprises.
Likewise, the new queue run is only active if both the old
daily_queuerun_enable is set to "YES" and the new daily_submit_queuerun

While I am here, remove the [ ! -d /var/spool/mqueue ] checks from

again."
As an alternative to sendmail_enable=NONE, solve the boot time problem
for non-sendmail users completely by moving all of the sendmail startup
code from /etc/rc to /etc/rc.sendmail. The source for that script will
be kept in src/etc/sendmail/rc.sendmail so make.conf's NO_SENDMAIL will
prevent it from being installed. A new rc.conf variable,
mta_start_script specifies the script to run to start the user's
preferred MTA. For backward compatibility, it will default to
/etc/rc.sendmail. The specified script is called out of /etc/rc after
checking to make sure it exists. A new rc.sendmail.8 man page has also
been added which now houses the sendmail_* variable descriptions
formerly in rc.conf.5.
Use /etc/rc.sendmail in /etc/mail/Makefile to reduce code duplication.

Instead of rc.conf's sendmail_enable only accepting YES or NO, it can now
also accept NONE. If set to NONE, none of the other sendmail related
startup items will be done.
Remove an extra queue running daemon might be started that wasn't necessary
(it didn't hurt anything but it wasn't needed).
The new logic is:
# MTA
if ${sendmail_enable} == NONE
# Do nothing
else if ${sendmail_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_flags}
else if ${sendmail_submit_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_submit_flags}
else if ${sendmail_outbound_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_outbound_flags}

if ${sendmail_enable} != NONE &&
[ -r /etc/mail/submit.cf] && ${sendmail_msp_queue_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_msp_queue_flags}

when running natd(8) out of the rc-files. It is perfectly valid for
the interface or alias address to be set in a natd(8) configuration
file, not on the command line. Also, loosen up the restrictions on
identifying an IP address argument in 'natd_interface.'
Fix the documentation, rc.conf(5), to reflect this change.
Take the bogus default for 'natd_interface' out of /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

at boot (sendmail_enable=NO), a localhost-only daemon may started
(sendmail_submit_enable) as it is needed to accept mail from command line
submissions. If this isn't desired, see etc/mail/README for more hints.
Optionally (sendmail_msp_queue_enable) start a queue runner for the
submission queue in case a daemon isn't available to accept command line
submitted mail at submission time.
Note that the syslog labels for all of these sendmail processes have been
uniquified for easier log parsing.
Try this out in -CURRENT, MFC, and then consider dropping the
'log_in_vain' knob all together. It really is something for
sysctl.conf(5).
