I've setup Sendmail on Linux before, but I am having major problems doing so on FreeBSD. I tried to install the new version of Sendmail...and I now nothing works. The startup script for it runs, and I can see 3 sendmail jobs ("sendmail: Queue runner@number for /var/spool/client"), but when I do a netstat -an, it doesn't show that it's listening on port 25. Here is exactly what I did: Moved /usr/share/sendmail to /usr/share/sendmail.old Ran /usr/ports/mail/sendmail/make then make install Added the line it tells you to rc.conf Updated /etc/mailer.conf as per the directions Went to /etc/mail and editied local-host-names file to reflect my system, and did the same with access Typed make in /etc/mail Ran the startup script I've tried re-making in the /etc/mail directory several times to no avail. I tried killing the inetd process, thinking it was holding the port. Can someone please help? I've been going for about 6 hours w/o mail now.
