I don't think it matters too much, but why do all these executables depend
on Math & Microtasking?  My copies of mutt and fetchmail, at least, don't
link against these libraries, though.

Since you're shipping fetchmailconf, shouldn't Tcl/Tk be included in the
imported interfaces?

Hmm.  Is there any point in shipping the pgp-related bits if we don't ship
pgp?  And I don't see a man page for smime_keys, so how does it relate to
the key management tools we already have on Solaris?

I also wonder if, given that procmail hasn't been updated in 7 years, if it
couldn't be considered Committed.

Thanks,
