One's a binary (the first one) the other two are symlinks that point to it. If you find you have a program that expects sendmail in yet another location, you have a couple of choices. Reconfigure that software. Or create a new symlink to the binary, in the location that software is looking. The alternatives scheme used symlinks. Programs might request a sendmail program. And they'd look for something at a known location. The alternative thing would make a symlink from there that points to the actual program on your system that was either sendmail, or an equivalent. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 (yes, this is the output from uname for this PC when I posted) Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
