I second that.  There are HUGE books written on how to properly
configure SM.  It's so complex that's it really difficult to do
properly. Using Sendmail to send yourself email alerts is the equivalent
of using tactical nukes to swat mosquitoes.  Postfix is pretty simple,
in comparison.  It's also a lot easier NOT to accidentally create an
open relay.  

2 cents,

Jimi

If sendmail has you stumped, you might want to install
postfix instead.  Its probably a good idea to be
running postfix anyway, and its pretty simple in
comparision to sendmail configuration.  postfix.org

Hi,
I deployed 4 sensors and one logging mysql server. I
want to enable E mail
alerts to myself.
I know that I need to install sendmail on each
sensor. After I installed
sendmail I tried to find a guide that can show me
what exactly I need to
configure in sendmail.conf
But I didn't find nothing...
Can someone please help ?
I will install syslog-ng after sendmail....
Thanks
