In your sendmail.cf file does the 'O DontBlameSendmail' option have a '#' in front of it, if it does then it is being commented out. This may indicate that the wrong *.cf file was installed on your system. What's the value of the DontBlameSendmail option in the sendmail.cf file? Are you using the freebsd.mc file, or a custom.mc file to create the *.cf file? Also is the SENDMAIL_MC uncommented & defined to your custom.mc file in /etc/make.conf file? As what most likely happened is that a mergemaster installed the freebsd.cf file over your custom.cf file if you didn't have it defined. Scot
