Will the SFE postfix package actually REPLACE sendmail??

In my system, using the SFEpostfix package, there's a
/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
that's an executable, and
/usr/sbin/sendmail
which is a symlink to /usr/lib/sendmail.

There's also a symlink /usr/lib/sendmail.postfix that points to /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix

sum /usr/lib/sendmail is different from sum /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
so I assume your statement is only true for some other form of postfix installation??

Hans,

You have the basics right.  The problem is that there is no clean way to
replace sendmail in OI yet.  When you install postfix, it will overwrite
/usr/lib/sendmail.

Thanks for the below pointer. I actually missed that.

Besides disabling sendmail, you need to disable sendmail-client as
well.  The refresh on postfix should cause it to reload the
configuration file.
