Re: [newbie] Sendmail isn't working!

Ok heres, a semi in depth (ok not at all) explanation.
The person the recommended you to select "install everything" go right now
and kick them in thier Butt. 

Postfix and Sendmail were not configured to coexsist, 
you need to start from scratch.

rpm -e --nodeps postfix
rpm -e --nodeps sendmail

Anything it says couldn't be removed you need to manualy delete.
Now pick which one you want to use, and re install it. Everything should
be normal after that.
