Either set that up, or add > sendmail_enable="NONE" to /etc/rc.conf to disable sendmail ... There is another approach, which is to ignore the message. After something like 3 repetitions, at something like a minute apart, it will give up on qualifying its name. Everything seems to work just fine thereafter until the next boot, when the entire sequence repeats. This leads to the question of how to get sendmail -- or whatever -- into the state where it will eventually land after the 3-miunte delay, without the delay and the messages. It seems as if this ought not be all that difficult. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
