In general I recommend against invoking sendmail for mail delivery rather than using SMTP. The error mode cases are better handled (ie more compleat) for SMTP delivery than they are for sendmail, making nmh more robust there. Further, when nmh is configured to use sendmail instead of SMTP nmh's whom tool calls sendmail as follows: .../sendmail/ -m -t -i -bv which creates problems with non-Sendmail MTAs: Postfix does not support "-bv" and returns in error Exim does not support "-t" with "-bv" and returns in error I haven't checked QMail as I won't use it, "whom" is far too useful as a component tool in MH to lose. -- J C Lawrence ---------(*) Satan, oscillate my metallic sonatas.
