If you're replacing the system sendmail with the version from ports, then you need to update /etc/mail/mailer.conf -- something like this: # $FreeBSD: stable/9/etc/mail/mailer.conf 93858 2002-04-05 04:25:14Z gshapiro $ # # Execute the "real" sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail # sendmail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail send-mail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail mailq /usr/local/sbin/sendmail newaliases /usr/local/sbin/sendmail hoststat /usr/local/sbin/sendmail purgestat /usr/local/sbin/sendmail Also, don't confuse the version of the sendmail from the config file with the version in the binary -- both of them show up in the SMTP banner= : % telnet localhost smtp Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 smtp.infracaninophile.co.uk ESMTP Sendmail 8.14.5/8.14.5; Fri, 3 Aug 2012 09:34:40 +0100 (BST) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The first one is the version of the binaries, the second is the configuration version, which you can easily change by modifying the DZ8.14.5 line in sendmail.cf Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
