how to expand [more] in maillog


Hi,

I see [more] in the sendmail's maillog. How do I get sendmail to expand it? This is happenning when a distribution list mailer script is using sendmail.

My mail problem is some of the addresses of the list are not receiving their copy, different people at different times, and I am trying to find the cause.

I use sendmail on an RHEL server.

Thanks for any help with this.
Nagaraj

Did you try looking at the sendmail man page, or at any of the sendmail documentation? From the man page:
Code:
-v     Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Mul-
              tiple  -v  options  make  the software increasingly
              verbose.
So, start sendmail with multiple "-v" switches (like "-vvvv"), and you increase verbosity. Try looking at the documentation:

Ok...so since you're paying for Red Hat enterprise, have you contacted Red Hat?? They can help you with this, since you're paying for that support. They also have documentation on their knowledegbase, which you also get access to with your subscription.
