If you have installed qmail properly, you don't have to do anything extra for this to work. You should have something like this in /etc/mail/mailer.conf: # Configuration for mailwrapper is kept in /etc/mail/mailer.conf. # Replace that file with this one to enable qmail under a sendmail # disguise. Very useful. sendmail/usr/local/qmail/bin/sendmail send-mail /usr/local/qmail/bin/sendmail mailq /usr/local/qmail/bin/qmail-qread newaliases /usr/local/qmail/bin/newaliases hoststat/usr/local/qmail/bin/qmail-tcpto purgestat /usr/local/qmail/bin/qmail-tcpok You'll note the comment lines; this is the mailer.conf file that is supplied by the qmail port. In fact, if you followed the directions in the pkg-message for the port, you will have run: make enable-qmail Which will have updated your /etc/mail/mailer.conf file automagically. One thing to note: if you've executed the 'minimal survival command' then your root email is accumulating in the ~alias mailbox. If you want it to show up in your mailbox (or anywhere else), you'll have to modify the ~alias/.qmail-root file appropriately. The same goes for postmaster and mailer-daemon. -- Danny ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

sendmail running on localhost 25?
I just installed 5.2.1, and after installing qmail, I still have sendmail running on localhost 25; even though I have sendmail_enable=NO in /etc/conf. Where is it launched? I don't see it in any /etc/rc* files.
