Yeah, we are not even near 100% coverage. However, one of the many
advantages of systemd is that a service unit from a distribution
usually works as-is or with minimal changes in any other.

For many basic unit files, you can go to

https://github.com/vonSchlotzkow/systemd-gentoo-units

It has a unit file  for postfix, for example. If the one you are
looking for is not there, you can search in other distributions. If
you download the RPM from
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21317874/dir/fedora_19/com/sendmail-8.14.7-1.fc19.i686.rpm.html,
and extract the files with rpm2tarbz2, then you can get the
sendmail.service file.

It will probably need some changes to work with Gentoo, but it should
not be difficult.

When is working, you can send your unit to the package maintainer in
Gentoo, and at some point it could be included in the package (like
the OpenRC init script).

That's how we will get 100% coverage, eventually.

Regards.
