Hello all.  I'm getting "TrySMTPDelivery:  Mabye your MTA daemon
needs restarting?" in the smtp-failures file.

So, I figure this is the problem.  However, I dug for a while (hour?)
and I can't figure out how to configure sendmail to accept local
mail on port 25.... I'm running RH 6.1 , so I guess they have
a new configuration default since it did work before without
any problems.

Best,

Clark
