I just had a similar problem caused by the fact that /usr/lib/sendmail was missing. As I'm using exim as MTA, I created /usr/lib/sendmail as a symlink pointing to the exim binary. That was an excellent tip. I started looking closely at /usr/lib/sendmail and following the link chain. Which led me back to /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail. Which is probably not the correct sendmail binary to be using when we're running postfix. Apparently, back when I setup this server many months ago, I never installed or ran: # yum install system-switch-mail # system-switch-mail Which switches the links around to point at sendmail.postfix. Once I fixed that, I had to adjust SELinux properties to create a custom profile to allow the sendmail binary to do its work. Thank you both for the pointers, everything is now working properly for vacation auto-responses. (Oddly enough, the broken setup worked with Dovecot 1.0 - and only reared its head after we upgraded to Dovecot 1.1.)
[Dovecot] sieve - Sendmail process terminated abnormally, exit status 70
How do we start troubleshooting this?
deliver([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Aug 12 18:27:19 Error: Sendmail process
terminated abnormally, exit status 70
deliver([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Aug 12 18:27:19 Info: sieve runtime error:
Vacation: Error sending mail
deliver([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Aug 12 18:27:19 Info:

It seems to only choke on the vacation portion. It creates entries in
the .dovecot.lda-dupes file. But then dies while sending the reply
e-mail.
The contents of the user's .dovecot.sieve file is:
-
require [fileinto, include, vacation];
# Move spam to spam folder
if exists X-Spam-Flag {
fileinto spam;
# Stop here so that we do not reply on spams
stop;
}
include :personal sieve-vacation;
-
And the file looks like:
-
require [vacation];
vacation
# Reply at most once a day to a same sender
:days 1
:subject Out of office reply
# List of recipient addresses which are included in the auto replying.
# If a mail's recipient is not on this list, no vacation reply is
sent for it.
:addresses [EMAIL PROTECTED]
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah,
[EMAIL PROTECTED];

If I comment out the include :personal sieve-vacation; line, then it
works, but obviously not the vacation portion. Deliver does at least
not die horribly.
I get the same error if I move the content of the vacation include file
into the main .dovecot.sieve file.

I'm not finding any AVC errors in the SELinux audit.log file. And I'm
not sure what other switches I can turn on to get better error
information as to what sendmail/deliver are choking on in this virtual
(setuid) environment where we use Dovecot as the LDA.
