The following shows up in the mailllog: Jan 18 07:56:59 mail sendmail[70185]: k0ICuv3r070159: to="| /usr/bin/vacation testuser", ctladdr=testuser@testhost.plymouth.edu (1388/100), delay=00:00:02, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=60954, dsn=5.6.0, stat=Data format error The same setup has been working on a 4.11 system forever. I have tried compiling vacation from the sendmail source (even tried the version from the 4.11 system). I tried it under 5.4 (non PAE kernel), same behavior. This is definitely a problem that appears to be in 5.4 and 6.0.
