Uninstall Sendmail Package
An XCCDF Rule
Description
Sendmail is not the default mail transfer agent and is
not installed by default.
The sendmail package can be removed with the following command:
$ sudo dnf erase sendmail
Rationale
The sendmail software was not developed with security in mind and its design prevents it from being effectively contained by SELinux. Postfix should be used instead.
