sendmail knows that *local* mail is delivered to the mail spool.
In fact I have found that sendmail thinks this system is called
isbd.net and thus mail sent to chris@xxxxxxxx gets put into the file
/var/mail/chris by sendmail.  Thus I have put:-
    root:       chris@xxxxxxxx
at the end of /etc/aliases and all is now OK.
What I *don't* quite understand is why sendmail thinks this is
isbd.net and why I couldn't tell it what the system should really be
called.  Everything else (apache, ssh, etc.) thinks it's called
home.isbd.net.
Given that my f8 system about as you expect, and I don't think that behaviour has changed in some years, I suspect you've changed something. Here's the sendmail.mc from this:

I changed this line to be home.isbd.net instead and it didn't fix my
problem so I changed it back.

Did you run make?


MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
