for information on generating your own sendmail configuration files.
+For the default installation, sendmail is configured to only process
+jobs that have been the queued and to not accept messages over the network.
+This makes it possible to send mail locally, but not receive mail from remote
+servers, which is ideal if you have one central incoming mail machine and
+several clients.
+To cause sendmail to accept network connections, modify the
+.Dq sendmail_flags
+variable in
+.Pa /etc/rc.conf
+in accordance with the comments therein.
+Note that sendmail now also listens on port 587 by default. This
+is to implement the RFC2476 message submission protocol. You may
+disable this via the
+.Dq no_default_msa
+option in your sendmail .mc file. See
+.Pa /usr/share/sendmail/README
+for more information.
