SENDMAIL_PATH-NOTFOUND error

Description of problem:
Until Fedora 25 there was no need to set a sendmail path.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Version      : 3.24.3
Release      : 1.fc26


How reproducible:
Configure a mail account with "Sending Email" Server Type "Sendmail".
Update from Fedora 25 to 26.
Send an email.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See above.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Evolution will not send the mail but throws an SENDMAIL_PATH-NOTFOUND error.


Expected results:
Mail should be delivered to sendmail (postfix in my case).

Additional info:

Comment 1 Frank Ansari 2017-07-09 13:45:21 UTC
I was able to send mails agaion by choosing "custom binary, instead of sendmail" and put /usr/bin/sendmail in the field.

Comment 2 Frank Ansari 2017-07-09 13:47:44 UTC
Sorry, /usr/sbin/sendmail is the path.

Comment 3 Milan Crha 2017-07-10 12:22:43 UTC
Thanks for a bug report. The path is auto-detected when building
evolution-data-server, thus when the sendmail is not installed it's also not found and there was no default. I changed it upstream with the below change, but I will also add BuildRequires to sendmail to the .spec file, thus it'll be found.
