No, it isn't.  In the "fprintf"/"perror" case, the problem is localized
to those two calls.  In the "sendmail" case, the problem is scattered
throughout the code (and, in recent versions of "sendmail", so is the
fix - "errno = 0" statements are liberally sprinkled throughout the
source).  You have to look at more than just the routine that produces
the error message....
