[Logcheck-devel] Bug#474608: logcheck: SMTP vs sendmail

[andrewn]

Package: logcheck
Version: 1.2.54
Severity: wishlist

Hi, 
Would it be possible to have loccheck using SMTP to send email reports
instead of local /usr/bin/sendmail. This would improve issues with
logcheck running on MTA system using mailscanners. 

Thanks,
Andrew.
