Hi there,
We have used sendmail 5.61 for some time on our SR10.2/SR10.3 nodes 
without any significant problems.
Last week we decided that sendmail 5.65 would be nice on our nodes
so we installed it.
We took a copy of sendmail (sendmail.5.65apo.tar.Z) from master.uio.no and 
installed the Apollo binary which was in the tarfile.
Unfortunately this sendmail this not work. Here is session that shows
our problems:

eba{volf}[//ebg/users/volf] 1 > mail volf
Subject: test
this is a test
*** EOF *** 
EOT
volf... Connecting to  (local)...
mail: mail: can't find mail group

volf... Sent
eba{volf}[//ebg/users/volf] 2 > mail maxad
Subject: another test
this is test 2
*** EOF *** 
EOT
/usr/user/maxad/.forward: line 1: maxad... forwarding to volf@eb.ele.tue.nl
volf@eb.ele.tue.nl... Connecting to  (local)...
rgyc_$pgo_get_projlist: No such file or directory
mail: mail: can't find mail group

volf@eb.ele.tue.nl... Sent

Needless to say: both mails do NOT arrive at their destination. If we change
back to sendmail 5.61 everything works fine again.

Has anyone seen this problem before????

P.s.: we didn't compile the source ourselves. Could this be the problem????


                    Thanx, Frank
