Sendmail error on apt-get upgrade
Howdy Group!
Whenever I try and do an apt-get upgrade It ask if I want to install a
new package, I check and its still sendmail; So I yet yes and continue
to install it. Well it asks for me to start sendmail and I say yes, then
it craps out during the start.
Can anyone explain?
I've attached the log, but here's the last bit:
Thank you for your help!!
