At the very least, it does make me feel better that it is not just me.
:)
Perhaps we should file a bug report on the issue?

Greetings misc@,
I am using rdist (with ssh as the transport) to update files from one
machine to another.
This works fine, except that it does not send the notify message once it
is complete. When running rdist from the command line, it hangs here:
$ sudo rdist -o remove -f /etc/Distfile.notifytest
testhost: updating host testhost
testhost: notify @testhost ( test@test.com )
(obviously I swapped out users and hosts for this mail)
When this happens I see sendmail in the process list:
11497 p0 I+ 0:00.02 /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t
But the mail never sends.
Here is the distfile:
HOSTS = ( testhost )
FILES = (
/etc/resolv.conf
)
default:
${FILES} -> ${HOSTS}
notify test@test.com ;
Reproducible here (3.8-stable/i386), using postfix instead of sendmail.
