Glenn,

My mailer.conf contains:

/etc/mail >cat mailer.conf
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/mail/mailer.conf,v 1.3.34.1 2009/04/15 03:14:26 kensmith
Exp $
#
# Execute the "real" sendmail program, named /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
#
sendmail        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
send-mail       /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
mailq           /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
newaliases      /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
hoststat        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
purgestat       /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail

regarding the symbolic link:

/etc/mail >ls -l /usr/sbin/sen*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     21 May 31 10:28 /usr/sbin/sendmail ->
/usr/sbin/mailwrapper

It was the /usr/sbin/sendmail, sorry about that!

So lets say , we replace the /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail with the
pgpsendmail object from /usr/local/lib.

/etc/mail >cd /usr/libexec/sendmail/
/usr/libexec/sendmail >ls -l
total 704
-r-xr-sr-x  1 root  smmsp  665512 May 31 10:28 sendmail
-r-xr-sr-x  1 root  smmsp   30944 Jul 23 19:17 sendmail.pgp
/usr/libexec/sendmail >mv sendmail sendmail.real
/usr/libexec/sendmail >mv sendmail.pgp sendmail

As you can see, exactly the same security and all.
Now check my env , for the PGPPATH variable:

SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash
TERM=xterm
OLDPWD=/etc/mail
USER=root
PAGER=more
FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
:/root/bin
MAIL=/var/mail/root
BLOCKSIZE=K
PWD=/usr/libexec/sendmail
PS1=$PWD >
SHLVL=1
HOME=/root
_=/usr/bin/env

Not there, so i can restart the process...

/etc/rc.d >./sendmail restart
Stopping sendmail.
Starting sendmail.
SENDMAIL refers back to PGPsendmail!
Someone didn't read the installation notes...

I checked the pkg-message file:

/usr/ports/mail/pgpsendmail >ls -l
total 10
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  640 Oct 16  2005 Makefile
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  204 Nov 25  2005 distinfo
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  512 May 31 17:07 files
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  456 Apr 17  1995 pkg-descr
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   58 Aug 17  1998 pkg-plist

But is is not there...
What can i do next, add/replace a line in mailer.conf:

sendmail        /usr/local/lib/pgpsendmail

Again, after a restart, i receive the same error.......

,Danny

What do you have this linked to?
/usr/libexec/sendmail -> /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail ?

Sometimes the problem is explained in the errors...
Other times, pkg-message would be helpful in a port.

%ls -1 /usr/ports/mail/pgpsendmail/
Makefile
distinfo
files
pkg-descr
pkg-plist

Have a look at mailer.conf(5)
