Description Jeff Sheltren 2011-12-08 22:29:42 UTC 
libesmtp exists in RHEL6 so it should no longer be in EPEL.  And the EPEL version is newer, so current behavior would be to override the package in base.

Yes, please remove these from EPEL although after all these months I'm not sure this going to accomplish getting it done.
