There is a line : dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA') that should be commented out which I suspect is not. Commenting is done by the dnl at the head of the line. Then you need to create a new sendmail.cf file by executing: m4 sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf Then restart sendmail and all should be well. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@trinity.edu -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
