in <link linkend="opt-services.gitlab.extraConfig">extraConfig</link> an additional
service called <literal>gitlab-mailroom</literal> is enabled for fetching incoming mail.

How do I configure this service? Does it use whatever sendmail is configured? Is there a configuration example somewhere we could link to?

I don't think we want to copy the upstream manual here and I don't feel like their links are stable at all (like their repo layouts). Also, sendmail has nothing to do with it, since this is about receiving mail and not sending it ;)

Right - incoming_mail.enabled is probably enough of breadcrumbs for people to scroll down to "Example for source installs:" in https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/incoming_email.html.
