Sendmail did not expect you to have a symbolic link for a homedir.
(In reply to comment #1) > Sendmail did not expect you to have a symbolic link for a homedir. Thanks Dan, I've set that up sync my $HOME (provided by NIS) is /home/devel/jlaska. I'm sure I had a reason for /home/devel -> /home at one point, but perhaps it's just better to mkdir /home/devel instead. Shall we close this sucker out?
I am adding this access since other people have hit it also. In Rawhide now. Hopefully mgrepl will pick it up
