Email sometimes has the null sender address (delivery status notifications, bounces, delayed mail warnings). With the form: /usr/sbin/sendmail -f"$sender" otherstuff it is exactly as if Postfix was invoked like this: /usr/sbin/sendmail -f otherstuff And that would be wrong. This is why a space is needed between the -f and the sender argument. Wietse
