Assuming you've set RH3 to use postfix (via redhat-switch-mailor
whatever
they call it) that sendmail binary is actually postfixs "conveniance
sendmail". So, as Pete rightly points out, you should be fine.

There is quite a lot about postfix and MS on the wiki... Perhaps take a
look at

http://wiki.mailscanner.info/doku.php?id=&idx=documentation:configuratio
n:mta:postfix

(all on one line... There's whitespace around it, so you should be able
to
"reconstruct" the URL after linewrap has mangled it:).
