ookay, sorry I'm working blind, as I've never installed sendmail since
Slackware days, and can't really test. But just to confirm, you are
certain that you are, in fact using sendmail? Note that any MTA
installed (postfix, exim, etc) will include a sendmail binary, even
though it's not really sendmail. (If that makes sense to you, you get
to keep my job :)
