Hi!

I am new to sendmail. I have been at this for days ..reading the Fedora 18
Users Guide and other documentation on various sites..

The port 25 is open, however I can not seem to get the service started and
there is apparently no other debug or logs which would indicate the cause
of the failure.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Lee
