Fine. So we've had the monthly "mail doesn't work on quiche, somebody
should deal" message.
I don't feel like receiving it again next month, so I've dug out
message [613] from the Linux-dev archive...

...and ignored it.
That is, I removed smail, commented out "rsmtp" from /etc/inetd.conf,
and re-installed the sendmail package from
/mit/linux/packages/sendmail.tgz.
Derek, if you want to make a package from a newer version, go ahead.
If you want to edit sendmail.cf to allow local mail delivery, go
ahead. These would both be valuable services. Please do.
Have a nice day.
