Frank,
This is a very common problem unique to Mandrake 7.2. The fix is pretty
simple though. Uninstall your current Sendmail package(s), which include
sendmail-cf, sendmail-doc, and sendmail. Next install either
Sendmail-8.10, or one of my personal favorites, Sendmail-8.9.3-20. The
package 8.9.3-20 doesn't require that you install sendmail-doc, or
sendmail-cf. Everything you need is already in the package for 8.9.3-20.
Works like a charm right out-a the box.
