I'm completely flummoxed by this. Ripping sendmail by the roots out of FreeBSD may not be such a good idea so I've avoided that,
remove any sendmail that is NOT provided by postfix is solving it
though I would have thought that mailwrapper and the rc.conf settings would have accomplished essentially the same thing.
mailwrappers need to use postfix sendmail not 3dr party sendmail commands
Thanks very much in advance for any help.
no problem
