It probably depends on the daemon. I'm guessing whether it's one that probably needs customisation before use, and those that don't. I notice that Apache doesn't run by default, even though it's installed. Likewise with NFS, Samba, Squid. -- (This box runs FC7, my others still run FC4, FC5, & FC6 in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
