+ When Bugzilla is using Sendmail older than 8.12, turning this option
+ off will improve performance by not waiting for Sendmail to actually
+ send mail. If Sendmail 8.12 or later is being used, there is
+ nothing to gain by turning this off. If another MTA is being used,
+ such as Postfix, then this option *must* be turned on (even if you
+ are using the fake sendmail executable that Postfix provides).

- To prevent creating conflicts with the software that Apple
- installs by default, Fink creates its own directory tree at
- /sw where it installs most of
- the software that it installs. This means your libraries and headers

- is, be sure to tell it

- You should watch the output from these make commands,
