Russ,

QMail doesn't allow rpm distributions for the most part. Also, part of the
fun of any Linux system, to me anyways, is getting the source files and
building them from scratch. Nothing makes learning easier then controlling
the entire process of getting something on your system.

Obviously, you understand that QMail is the far better choice for a mail
server - why not take the time to install it the way it was meant to be
install - from scratch!

The following document is what I used as a guide for my QMail installation

Hope this helps you get rid of sendmail's hassles

Subject: [SLE] Sendmail appears to be retarded



PHP didn't seem to be sending mail so I tried typing in sendmail at the
command line, here's what I get:

linux:~ # /usr/sbin/sendmail
Segmentation fault
linux:~ # /usr/lib/sendmail
Segmentation fault

Thats the default Suse 7.2 sendmail, I removed and added the original 7.2
sendmail, and I rpm updated to the one on ftp.suse.com and have the same
error.  Any suggestions are appreciated

BTW: Why the fuck doesn't suse distribute a sendmail alternative.  7 CDs in
suse pro and I can't get a qmail rpm?
