>Originator:     David Gilbert
>Release:        FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE i386
>Organization:
Velocet Communications
>Environment:

FreeBSD-4.1.1-STABLE and ( postfix-19991231.08 or postfix-20001030_1 )

>Description:

When uucp is being used with postfix, rmail (/bin/rmail) is still used.
Recently (sometime after 4.1.1) rmail broke wrt postfix.  Typical log
entries are:

Nov  3 22:27:03 strike postfix/sendmail[17795]: fatal: usage: sendmail [options]

and uucp logs say:

uuxqt sabre uucp (2000-11-03 23:14:23.71 23936) ERROR: Execution: Exit status 1
uuxqt sabre uucp (2000-11-03 23:14:23.71 23936) Execution failed (X.sabreN1YN9)

>How-To-Repeat:

use uucp to send/receive mail and postfix will a recent 4-STABLE

>Fix:

Substituting the 4.1-RELEASE /bin/rmail binary appears to fix things.
