Hello all,

Is there a sendmail guru in the house? I've been trying to get a certain feature to work for several weeks now at work, with no luck.

I'm trying to get sendmail to forward email to a program, using the "prgmforward: "|/fully/qualified/path/to/script"" syntax in the /etc/aliases file. I've put the appropriate shortcuts to allow the smrsh to execute m program. Somehow, though, I get errors in my maillog like this one:

<quote>

Feb 23 15:01:55 dbtest2 sendmail[32150]: i1NM0Ohx032097: SYSERR(root): mailer prog died with signal 11
Feb 23 15:01:55 dbtest2 sendmail[32150]: i1NM0Ohx032097: to="|/opt/repeat_temp/repeat", ctladdr=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (8/0), delay=00:01:31, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=120613, dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: prog mailer (/usr/sbin/smrsh) exited with EX_TEMPFAIL


</quote>

Any ideas? I've already tried invoking the program by hand, both using bash directly, and using "smrsh -c /opt/repeat_temp/repeat". I've also hoped that it was just some sort of configuration or package issue, and tried using other distros, namely Redhat 9.0, Mandrake 9.2, and SuSE 9.0.

System background info:

Distro: Fedora Core 1
Kernel: 2.4.22-1.2140.nptl
Sendmail version: 8.12.10-1.1.1



Thanks,
Lloyd Brown
