>Description:
Sendmail starts with incorrect parameters, assuming you have
added customized sendmail_flags variable to /etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc.conf.local,
when started the following way
# cd /etc/mail
# make start
>How-To-Repeat:
# grep sendmail_flags /etc/rc.conf
# sendmail_flags="-bd -q30m -oOA=127.0.0.1"
# cat /var/run/sendmail.pid
190
/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q30m -oOA=127.0.0.1
# sudo make stop
/bin/kill -TERM `head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid`
# make start
(. /etc/defaults/rc.conf; if [ "${sendmail_enable}" = "YES" -a -r
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf ]; then /usr/sbin/sendmail ${sendmail_flags}; fi )
# cat /var/run/sendmail.pid

/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q30m
