Sendmail seems working but not
 
After switching from postfix to sendmail,I have successfully installed and so-called "configured" it.:p

Initially,I can send it.However,when I check my root account(because I want to send to myself),there are nothing,no mail.I tried to type mailq,and I discovered that all of the mail are in queue,It couldn't be sent out!!!!

Do you guys have any suggestions about this problem?Any suggestions would be much appreciated! :D

It could be many things. First try this:

sendmail -v -q

If you look at the sendmail documentation, you will see that this command should (verbosely) clear the queue. Check your /var/spool/maillog, or wherever you are logging mail messages.

You can also do mail -v <recipient> which should provide some diagnosable dialogue on the console.
