Description of problem:
In the file:
/etc/init.d/sendmail
there is a call to:
make -C /etc/mail -q
if you use the -q option, the program make does not do
what it is suposed to do.
To solve the issue, use this line:
make -C /etc/mail >/dev/null

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. edit /etc/mail/access
2. run service sendmail restart
3. run ls -lt /etc/mail/access*
4. the timestamp differs
	

Actual Results:  the /etc/mail/Makefile should be run

Confirmed that the bug also happend in RedHat 7.2
Changing Severity to High because is really a big bug.

Comment 2 Florian La Roche 2003-01-22 17:34:25 UTC
Please change this to "-s" to have it work correctly. If another erratum rpm
is done for older Red Hat Linux releases, this patch will also be included.

Thanks a lot,

Florian La Roche
