All,
I am having a weird issue with Sendmail. I set up a filtering system,
and I set up my .forward to pipe my mail through the perl script. I'm
using smrsh, so I made a symlink to /usr/local/bin/hldfilter in
/usr/lib/sm.bin. /home is owned/grouped root, and set to 775. If I set
it to 755, I don't get any mail for some reason. Because of this, I get
these errors in /var/log/mail.log:
Apr 6 19:02:20 marvin sendmail[29919]: TAA29919:
from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=4255, class=-60, pri=142255, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP,

Apr 6 19:02:20 marvin sendmail[29920]: TAA29919: forward

If I use the "DontBlameSendmail" option in sendmail.cf and set it to
"ForwardFileInUnsafeDirPathSafe, GroupWritableForwardFileSafe,
ForwardFileInUnsafeDirPath", smrsh complains with these messages:

Can someone point me in the right direction here?
TIA,
Kenny
