I never required this so far so I was not aware that the default
/kolab/sbin/sendmail provided by postfix cannot always be used. What
are the problems when using it? Probably that it tries to check for an
existing user account, right? Or are there other problems? Maybe it
would be easier to define the necessary accounts as an alias for
postfix.

Cheers,

Gunnar
