This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

Fedora Core 3 and Fedora Core 4 are no longer supported. If you could retest
this issue on a current release or on the latest development / test version, we
would appreciate that. Otherwise, this bug will be marked as CANTFIX one month
from now. Thanks for your help and for your patience.

Comment 3 Thomas Woerner 2007-07-23 12:19:47 UTC

This is a CANT FIX, because there are too many components in the system, which
need sendmail.

Although it's worth noting for the record that postfix or exim (both also in the
distro) can fill that requirement as well or better.
