I found the comments in the .pinerc file suggested a simple hack which worked for me (my sendmail-path was originally blank): # This names the path to an alternative program, and any necessary arguments, # to be used in posting mail messages. Example: # /usr/lib/sendmail -oem -t -oi # or, # /usr/local/bin/sendit.sh # The latter a script found in Pine distribution's contrib/util directory. # NOTE: The program MUST read the message to be posted on standard input, # AND operate in the style of sendmail's "-t" option. sendmail-path=/usr/lib/sendmail -oem -t -oi Cheers. -- Colin Telmer, Institute of Intergovernmental Relations School of Policy Studies Building, Room 309, Queen's University Kingston, Ontario, Canada, K7L-3N6 (613)545-6000x4219 <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://terrapin.econ.queensu.ca> -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
