To have a deamon running you need in /etc/rc.conf: sendmail_flags="--L sm-mta -bd -q30m" $ cp /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sendmail.sh.sample /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sendmail.sh > Set the sendmail.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and reboot.

Yes, cause you start 2 sm-msp-queue only. > The one thing that throws me off in pkg-message is the statement about > adding stuff to sendmail.mc. I do not have a sendmail.mc file on my > sysytem.
