I am running ELM on a tower 600 SysVr3 with smail and WIN/TCP
which includes sendmail. The problem i am having is that
if ELM see's sendmail running it will try and use that as
transport and sendmail does not understand domain addressing.
So what i want to do is have ELM ignore sendmail and use smail
instead. Is there a way to compile ELM this way? Also how
do i complile it with debug enabled?
Thanks for any info.

While I do admit that Elm's configure is heavily biased towards sendmail once it finds it, and some of the utilities are damn obnoxious about insisting on it, it can be configured out. You need to set the name of the agent to deliver mail, do it at the end of the configure run, edit the config.sh at the prompt when it asks for final changes and change the mail delivery agent (just look for sendmail in the answers). As to sendmail not understanding domain addresses, why not just update your sendmail.cf file :-). I know sendmail.cf files are a real pain (that why I run smail 3.1), but sendmail can handle domain addresses even better than smail. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S.
