This first choice could be made to be dma. This is something we can +change in the meta-task package (/etc/urpmi/prefer.vendor.list). + +Of course, this would mean than any package requiring sendmail-command would +see dma first in the list. I don't know if it would be a good think or not. I +tend to think yes, because for standard users dma will be preferred whereas +experience admins will choose the MTA they want. + +So if we had not an update to issue, this would be my choice. Suggest +sendmail-command and make sure that dma is preferred when there's an automatic +selection. + +If what I say here makes sense, maybe in Mageia 1 msec could suggest dma and +in Cauldron sendmail-command, + we would alter meta-task ?
