Then it is indeed a bug. I installed Fedora Core 1 about a week and a
half ago and chose the 'Workstation' install. sendmail, the program,
was installed as part of that selection. I didn't deselect any specific
packages during the install. I got whatever was included in the
'Workstation' install. sendmail-cf was not included.

I would think that this needs to be corrected on a more "global"
scale. However, before submitting a bug I am going to check one thing.
What packages are included in the 'Workstation' install? I'll check for
sendmail-cf and see if somehow the installation simply failed to install
it.
This will determine whether the bug is an installation bug, or a
usability bug for the 'Workstation' install.
The clarification on bug submissions are appreciated.
