[olug] Sendmail

This server WAS working fine up until about the last month and seems to be working today but I am just looking for ways to prove that it is not MY server but the server I am pulling messages from.  The application (FootPrints) seems to do everything, or so it seemed once I "installed sendmail" from the rpm provided by SuSE.  I did NO configuration on sendmail once it was installed.  (Yes, I know, wrist duely slapped for not looking into this before now.)

Anyhow, here is what sendmail.cf has on the requested line:
DaemonPortOptions=Name=MTA

In searching my system, I don't find the sendmail.mc so...
The /var/log/mail is showing things coming and going.  I also went in and looked more at roots mail and nothing revealing in there.

Is this a new sendmail server you setup?  If so, look at your sendmail.cf
for the DaemonPortOptions,  and remove the Addr=127.0.0.1 from entry.  You
can also remove it from the sendmail.mc and regenerate your .cf file. The
option in the MC file is DAEMON_OPTIONS

Ok, trying to figure out if OUR email system is not allowing Sendmail to
pull the emails OR if Sendmail is just not working right.  Where does
Sendmail write it's logs?  I have not been able to locate anything that says
it is working or not working.

Any help appreciated!!
