Yes, even things that you don't needed to have a
server working ;-), but metamail isn't in RH9 release,
even I think that happens in RH( too. Go to
http://rpmfind.net/ and search for metamail or use the
rpm that is included in RH7.3.

metamail.

Because you have metamail in RH7.3 and you didn't
installed mgetty-sendfax package, you see, all doesn't
mean better.
