I just got the sources for mush 7.1 (date on most files is May 3/4) and with a
little help from Bart Schaefer (thanks Bart!), have it up and running . . .
excpet mushtool is not sending out mail.
Background:
Sun 4/280 Sun OS 4.0
sendmail 5.64 from Berkeley
Doing a compose from mushtool, and then a send, the message is sent to
sendmail, and sendmail -i -v user@site is called, but this is as far as
anything goes. Looking at ps, sendmail is in an IW state, messages appear in
the syslog saying:
Jul 19 09:24:26 insanity sendmail[13913]: AA13913: from=root, size=54, class=0
finally needing to kill it. Later messages appear in the syslog:
Jul 19 14:41:41 insanity sendmail[14881]: AA13954: locked
Jul 19 14:41:41 insanity sendmail[14881]: AA14047: locked
Jul 19 14:41:41 insanity sendmail[14881]: AA14081: locked
Jul 19 14:41:41 insanity sendmail[14881]: AA14138: locked
Jul 19 14:41:41 insanity sendmail[14881]: AA14172: locked
The funny thing is that using just mush, everything is mailed fine. Does
mushtool mail things slightly differently? Different headers? HELP!!

I've never tried sending mail verbosely in tool mode. If I have a chance in the next few days, I will. My guess is that the -v flag is causing sendmail to try to write to a tty that, in tool mode, does not exist. This hangs everything. If the -v is in your sendmail args in config.h, get rid of it and recompile. If you have $verbose set, unset it. See if that fixes things. -- Bart Schaefer schaefer@cse.ogi.edu
