There used to be the following lines in /etc/sysconfig/mail:

This prevents sendmail/postfix from accepting mail for delivery from interfaces other than localhost. Note that once mail has been accepted for delivery, there is no restriction as where this mail will be delivered to. This is a useless restriction for preventing any local users from sending mail to anywhere on the internet. Note also that mail can be given to sendmail/postfix for delivery by anyone calling /usr/sbin/sendmail.
Why have they been removed?
