Barnett) Here is my hack to sendmail.el to work around the SunOs4 sendmail bug. Unfortunately, it looks like I forgot to save my original sendmail.el, so diffs are not available. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out-- I just commented out two lines. The following starts on line 237 of the 18.54 version (18.53 is the same, I think): ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ;;;; Hack this out for Sun sendmail bug ;;;; (and (equal (user-real-login-name) "root") (list "-f" (user-login-name)) ;;;; ) ;; These mean "report errors by mail" ;; and "deliver in background". +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Enjoy.
