last nite I downloaded the patch for "sendmail" However, i have my copy of "sendmail" turned off, put I was planning to turn it on soon, when I saw Martin's post and wondered how many have switched to Wietse Venema's "postmix, which SuSE has a version for my 8.0 box, and probably for 8.1 too--- i tried to load "postfix" but it conflicts w/send mail -- so .....what to do??? comments, anyone.
--> In what way does it conflict with sendmail ? You can only run one MTA at a time. Though it should be ok to have both installed. So: "rpm -Uhv postfix..." should work Then stop sendmail "rcsendmail stop" before starting postfix.
