You can get most of this effect by set mail-interactive to t -- Emacs will then wait for sendmail to run and display any errors that it returns. If you want sendmail to be verbose, you'll have to change sendmail.el a bit: in sendmail-send-it, at the end of (apply 'call-process-region ...), change (if (null mail-interactive) '("-oem" "-odb")) to (if (null mail-interactive) '("-oem" "-odb") '("-v")) Dale
