Ran into some problems with reports under cron that fail dismally when sendmail is used, but mail works fine. I am used to an older sendmail, still it should add the @host.domain in the from and return-path lines when it checks the alias file and finds it redirected (mail proxy didn't like it w/o at least *something* before and after the "@") or did I explain/miss something. <shrug> Long day.
