Now, as far as non-standard environments, needing Sendmail to accept

Beg your pardon? Email as we know it can't work unless this happens.

Correction: E-mail as *YOU* know it...

Yes, I consider both ends of the connection, as you've obviously ignored.

Explain this - It makes no sense in the context of the message.

I've never had Linux accepting mail from the internet with its SMTP
server, in all the years that I've used Linux. And only those with
their own domain name and/or fixed IP address could to that, either.

OK, and how many domain names and fixed IP addresses are there? Do you
think those numbers make things unlikely?

Make what unlikely? That they would be running Sendmail, Fedora
Core, and would consider using a GUI to configure it? Definitely.
