Recently I (foolishly, it seems) installed the linuxconf RPMs and then
rapidly backed them off when the thing started taking over my system.
My mail client (kmail) started issuing 'Send Failed' pop-ups and I
found when I issue 'sendmail -q' I get the error message:
=09Cannot open hash database /etc/mail/deny: Invalid argument=20
All the files in /etc/mail are empty and have never been touched by me.=20
Since ~/deny and ~/deny.db are both zero length I don't think rehahing is=
 the
answer. Any ideas, you sendmail gurus?
TIA
