System name:		m37-332-2.mit.edu
Type and version:	Ultra-5_10 8.3.19
Display type:		m

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		mwm

What were you trying to do?
	well, first off, it was on m37-332-8, not 2.  more on that
later.  I was trying to send mail.

What's wrong:
	I got this error message:
What now? send
/etc/sendmail.cf: line 34: readcf: option u: unknown group daemon: No such file or directory
send: message not delivered to anyone

What now?

<repeat ad nauseum>

Of course, when I tried to use sendbug from that machine, I got the
same error. :)

What should have happened:
	mail should have been sent. :)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	the /etc/sendmail.cf on m37-332-8 is the same as the one on -5, and
sendmail works on -5.
