Thread: sendmail

hi,
i've been trying install sendmail, have been running following errors,

need 0b/3494b of archives.
after unpacking 254kb of additional disk space used.
selecting deselected package sendmail.
(reading database ... 18546 files , directories installed.)
unpacking sendmail (from .../sendmail_8.14.2-2build1_all.deb) ...
setting sendmail-bin (8.14.2-2build1) ...

doing new install, or have erased /etc/mail/sendmail.mc.
if you've accidentaly erased /etc/mail/sendmail.mc, check /var/backups.

creating safe, default sendmail.mc , can
run sendmailconfig later if need change defaults.
