Sendmail query
Moved to a new dedicated server and the move has not gone very smoothly. Just configuring mailarc and getting this error:

smrsh: archive.pl.--forum=10 not available for sendmail programs

What is smrsh it is trying to use UID: 8 any ideas what I should do.

See this URL for a description of smrsh:

http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section2.html#2.13

Basically, it sounds like sendmail has been restricted for use except by specific programs; you (or, more likely, your ISP) will need to allow access to archive.pl with any arguments, and probably also to subscribe.pl.

Hi it's a dedicated server so we have full control so it's not an ISP problem. Will read the contents of the URL you have referred me to.
