Well, if you provide details of:

1) The error!
2) The version of sendmail
3) Your operating system

to the newsgroup comp.mail.sendmail then people will probably be able to help.
Without those 3 key pieces of information however most people's crystal balls
will remain broken.

Consult the documentation for the LDA (local delivery agent) you're using.

Oh, neither of these have anything to do with MIMEDefang :)


PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list.  Email sent directly to me may be
ignored utterly.
