    Hi.

    I just installed RH9 and installed a basic server. I almost immediately
    downloaded and install apt and ran 'atp-get update sendmail'. It
    subsequently downloaded about 52 packages and installed them.

    I then changed the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file to allow connections from
    places other than localhost. I rebuilt sendmail.cf using m4 and then
    restarted sendmail and got the following error.

    [root@localhost /etc/mail]# service sendmail restart
    Shutting down sendmail: [ OK ]
    Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED]
    Starting sendmail: [ OK ]
    Starting sm-client: No local mailer defined
    QueueDirectory (Q) option must be set
                                                               [FAILED]
    [root@localhost /etc/mail]#

    So now I've spent about 1 hour looking for an answer with absolutely no
    luck. Can someone shed some light on this? Did apt-get screw it up?
    Should I just start over with the install and do something in a
    different order?

    Thanks,
    Chris.
