and enable the usage by sendmail if sendmail is enabled. Include and
document knobs to disable this feature and also set the Common Name of
the certificate created.
As the certificate is signed w/ a discarded key, it only helps prevent
Eve, but not Malory from knowing the contents of the emails.
This means that new installs (and people that use the updated freebsd.mc
file) will automaticly have STARTTLS enabled allowing incoming email to
be encrypted in most cases.

Apparently binding only to 127.0.0.1 inside of a jail actually binds
to the jail IP address as well (in effect, bind to all available
interfaces in the jail).

As an alternative to sendmail_enable=NONE, solve the boot time problem
for non-sendmail users completely by moving all of the sendmail startup
code from /etc/rc to /etc/rc.sendmail. The source for that script will
be kept in src/etc/sendmail/rc.sendmail so make.conf's NO_SENDMAIL will
prevent it from being installed. A new rc.conf variable,
mta_start_script specifies the script to run to start the user's
preferred MTA. For backward compatibility, it will default to
/etc/rc.sendmail. The specified script is called out of /etc/rc after
checking to make sure it exists. A new rc.sendmail.8 man page has also
been added which now houses the sendmail_* variable descriptions
formerly in rc.conf.5.
Use /etc/rc.sendmail in /etc/mail/Makefile to reduce code duplication.
