The other day, I though I would install smail. So I went to /usr/ports/mail/smail, and did a make, make install. Everything seemed to work fine. Unfortunately, I quickly decided that I liked sendmail better. I went back into the smail ports directory, and did a make deinstall. Here is where my problems started. I'm running 3.3-Release #1. When sendmail runs on bootup, I get this error message. sendmail: main: bad stat() of smail binary /usr/local/sbin/sendmail Which confuses me, because the sendmail binary is in /usr/sbin/ not /usr/local/sbin. And the smail part of the error message makes me think I did something wrong in the process of deinstalling it. I made a symlink to point from /usr/local/sbin/sendmail to /usr/sbin/sendmail. It seemed to fix the error, but I didn't really want to do that, because, err, it seemed broken to me. Where did I go wrong?
