I'm not a big guru but I believe that postfix has its own daemon and it has a sendmail binary that is compatible with the system default sendmail. Anyway, your comment helped me a lot! I upgraded to 6.2 some weeks ago and probably I did not reactivate postfix in /etc/mail/mailer.conf. Additionally, probably I forgot to merge the old mailer.conf with the new one. I changed my rc.conf to this: sendmail_enable="NO" postfix_enable="YES" Then I started postfix: messias# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix start postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system messias# ps ax | grep postf 68249 ?? Ss 0:00.01 /usr/local/libexec/postfix/master Yet I still do not get my emails: messias# mail gandalf Subject: Test3 . EOT Null message body; hope that's ok messias# mail Mail version 8.1 6/6/93.
