Add it back to make sendmail works normally

before adding it back:
 # mime-construct --to root --subject mail-20826 --encoding 7bit --string mail_content

 sendmail: account default not found: no configuration file available
 Error closing sendmail: non-zero exit (78) at /usr/bin/mime-construct line 572.
 # echo $?
 78

After adding it back:
 # mime-construct --to root --subject mail-20826 --encoding 7bit --string mail_content
 # echo $?
 0
