This happens if you don't include a "To:" line in the actual message body.
This is something that you will see in sendmail but not mail.

Here is the relevant part of the script (in the "form message" section)

> > # form message

Try this as a test.
\
Create a file called "messagetest.txt" containing the following 4 lines
(including the blank line)

Subject: test subject
To: youraddress@xxxxxxx

Ths is a test


Then do this command
# cat messagetest.txt | /usr/lib/sendmail -f fromaddress@xxxxxxxx
youraddress@xxxxxxx


The "To:" header will be taken from the file.
