Description hvv 1999-06-26 17:10:06 UTC
Manual for sendmail is badly formatted (seems it's preformatted for different screen width in very funny way - there are no actual wraps, but document looks like it was wrapped)

Comment 1 Derek Tattersall 1999-06-28 14:23:59 UTC
man page sendmail(8) has troff problems.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 1999-08-19 22:09:59 UTC
*** Bug 4536 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

The following man pages included with sendmail seem to be
misformatted (some sort of line width problem, it looks
like):

mailq.1
newaliases.1
aliases.5
mailstats.8
makemap.8
praliases.8
rmail.8
sendmail.8

This problem also exists in sendmail-8.9.3-11 from Rawhide.

This has been verified to be a problem with the sendmail man pages.
Passing on to a developer for further review.
