Hi,

I recently did a 'make build' of userland and then went back to my previous
setup(command line arguments were being truncated).

Now, my mail system fails with:

SYSERR(daemon) - Can't execute /usr/libexec/mail.local: permission denied.

Ownerships and permissions are as follows:

_rwxr_xr_x  root:wheel /usr/sbin/sendmail
_rwxr_xr_x  root:kmem /usr/libexec/mail.local

Does anyone recognise this problem? I have made sure that /etc/sendmail.cf is
configured as it was when it used to work and I don't think I've done anything
else that might have been the cause.

Any help would be appreciated, as I'm getting splinters from the head
scratching!

regards,
Dave
