Here is how I start Sendmail


/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -OPrivacyOptions=noetrn -ODeliveryMode=queueonly -OQueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue.in -q1m

Here is a log snippet

Jun 24 16:32:00 doctor MailScanner[9882]: New Batch: Found 103 messages waiting
Jun 24 16:32:00 doctor MailScanner[9882]: New Batch: Scanning 13 messages, 3992361 bytes

but it seems to be doing nothing at all :-s
