nope no symlink to mail
any other suggestions?
Do you set the SENDMAIL variable? If so, remove that assignment and
try again. If not, try running the following command:
procmail LOG='$SENDMAIL' DEFAULT=/dev/null /dev/null < /dev/null ; echo ''
If the output of that isn't either
/usr/lib/sendmail
or /usr/sbin/sendmail
then whoever compiled the procmail binary edited a part of the config.h
file that they would have been better leaving alone. In particular,
the DEFsendmail #define should *not* refer to /bin/mail, despite the
example provided in the config.h file. Indeed, the next version will
say something like:
/*#define DEFsendmail "/usr/sbin/sendmail" /* uncomment and/or change if
the autoconfigured default
SENDMAIL is not suitable. This program should quack like a sendmail:
it should accept the -oi flag (to tell it to _not_ treat a line
containing just a period as EOF) and then a list of recipients. If the
-t flag is given, it should instead extract the recipients from the
To:, Cc:, and Bcc: header fields. If it can't do this, many standard
recipes will not work. One reasonable candidate is "/etc/mta/send"
on systems that support the MTA configuration switch. */
