Greetings gatelings,

My putback a few minutes ago for:

6710260 sendmail's config/local_only property should be true out-of-the-box

introduces a flag-day for mail servers.  Upgrading to build 92 will set the
config/local_only SMF property for svc:/network/smtp:sendmail to true, so if
your value for that property, which you can tell by doing:

% svcprop -p config/local_only svc:/network/smtp:sendmail

is false, which it should be if you want to accept mail from machines other
than localhost, then you will need to reset the value, as I did in this
example:

[root@opal:1] svccfg -s svc:/network/smtp:sendmail setprop config/local_only=false
[root@opal:2] svcadm refresh svc:/network/smtp:sendmail
[root@opal:3] svcadm restart svc:/network/smtp:sendmail
[root@opal:4]
