>Description:
When sendmail_outbound_enable is set to YES, sendmail_enable should be
automagically set to NO.  Otherwise, if you set outbound to YES and delete
your sendmail_enable="NO" you still get sendmail started with -bd
>How-To-Repeat:
See above
>Fix:
Maybe only have one config option, with "YES", "NO", and "OUTBOUND" or some
such thing.

State-Changed-Why:  
I don't think this should be changed.  It's meant to be a cascading 
feature.  If sendmail_enable is set to yes, sendmail_outbound_enable 
is ignored.  If sendmail_enable is set to no, sendmail_outbound_enable 
at least makes sure outgoing mail stuck in the queue gets delivered. 

There is also sendmail_submit_enable which makes sure there is a 
submit daemon to take local mail from the command line.  Perhaps this 
is the -bd daemon you are seeing.  See /etc/mail/README and `man rc.sendmail` 
for more information about it.
