The restart may have been needed in this cause because you where running it
out of inetd. Have to SIGHUP that inetd before it reads the inetd.conf file
again.
# kill -HUP `cat /var/run/inetd.pid`
In Mr. Schmitt's case, I'm not sure if this is the case, but this is
probably what Mr. Johnson saw.
I still use the pain-in-the-rear-end Sendmail, Got it working with SMTP
Auth and SSL (well, wrapping it with stunnel is better because Outlook
doesn't like the StartTLS ).
