Dwight Johnson posted a "sendmail" answer to my Netscape lockup problem which I have misplaced, so I cannot quote it. I replied that I could never get sendmail to send outgoing SMTP messages. With Dwight's suggestion and a lot of time with man smail, I have gotten smail to send messages, but only by the following: cat <message file name> | smail -t The -t option fetches the To address from the message itself. When the message is in smail's outgoing queue file, which is /var/spool/smail/input (I think), smail -t -q doesn't send the message, nor are any errors logged. What's going on? Is it required that the queued nail have some standard style filename like a message ID? I think that Dwight's solution will work out fine for me if I can get past this.
