Subject: [Exim] sendmail startup problem
Hello all,

I'm new to this list. I haven't been able to find
anything to help me
out with this problem. When I try to start sendmail I
get this error:

root@dove> ./rc.sendmail start
Starting sendmail MTA daemon: /usr/sbin/sendmail -L
sm-mta -bd -q25m
exim abandoned: unknown, malformed, or incomplete
option -L
Starting sendmail MSP queue runner:
/usr/sbin/sendmail -L
sm-msp-queue -Ac -q25m
exim abandoned: unknown, malformed, or incomplete
option -L


I've tried taking out the 'L' from the sendmail script
and sendmail
just hangs on starting up. I've tried taking out all
the switches
after both /usr/sbin/sendmail commands and get the
same result.

Anyone know what is going on here?

Thank you for the help.
