You need to make sure sendmail is starting and running. Check your
rc.conf and any variables that might need to be set.
Thanks!
In my rc.conf:
sendmail_enable="NO"
However, as I wrote, I was using postfix. I'm not a big guru but I
believe that postfix has its own daemon and it has a sendmail binary
that is compatible with the system default sendmail.
Anyway, your comment helped me a lot! I upgraded to 6.2 some weeks ago
and probably I did not reactivate postfix in /etc/mail/mailer.conf.
Additionally, probably I forgot to merge the old mailer.conf with the
new one. I changed my rc.conf to this:
sendmail_enable="NO"
postfix_enable="YES"
Then I started postfix:
messias# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix start
postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system
messias# ps ax | grep postf
68249 ?? Ss 0:00.01 /usr/local/libexec/postfix/master
Yet I still do not get my emails:
messias# mail gandalf
Subject: Test3
