So someone is trying to use my computer to send spam. This is bad.
My computer is rejecting these attempts? This is good.
Do I need sendmail to get mail from a remote host if I am using
fetchmail? How do I kill sendmail so it doesn't start at boot or as a
daemon? Because yes, I see it is running. Or do I just not worry since
the spammers are being rejected they will go somewhere else?
