Ubuntu - sendmail problem

[Rick Bragg]

Thanks Ed,

Your right, It is a sendmail error. sendmail is not even running. There
is a disconnect between MailScanner and sendmail.  I think that
MailScanner needs to wrap around sendmail and control it.  

How can I make this work??

p.s.
I am just using the "out of the box" installs and configs for ubuntu...
and I am trying not to stray from this at all.  I don't want to
re-invent anything!!

Thank You all for your help!
