    No, it is not.  It is only started when REMAIL is set to y in the
    remailer's config file.

The use of /etc/mixmaster/remailer.conf to control daemon startup is
not customary[1] compared to other services[2] started at boot. The
correct location is

    /etc/default/

Please change the sequence to read the /etc/default/mixmaster (as
suggested in previous mails) to see if the daemons should start. This
will provide uniform interface to the system administrators to control
the mixmaster service like the other services.
