when you set this, mrtg will try to use Net::SMTP for sending out
the mails with the --email option ... (guess this is an
inconsistancy :-) ... for other mails smokeping can presently only
use sendmail (if you do not config its location with the sendmail
config ariable it will assume sendmail to be located at
/usr/lib/sendmail
