Being a newbie, I let rhn up2date install a sendmail upgrade to my WBL plesk server.
The way I understand it, Plesk replaces /usr/sbin/sendmail with a link to qmail. Well, now I'm seeing these two files in /usr/sbin/ -- sendmail (455620 bytes) and sendmail.saved by psa (417828 bytes.) These files must be binaries, they are too big to be links.
Can anyone give me some pointers as to how I should correct this? It is causing me problems with VBulletin - the system hangs for 30+ seconds when sending an email. The emails do go through though.
Thanks everyone,

Full Version: rhn up2date killed my sendmail
I guess you didn't see my comments in another thread about potential problems with up2date. 
Anyway, you should be able to fix it by making a symbolic link to the sendmail binary used by plesk.

CODE
cd /usr/sbin
mv sendmail sendmail.up2dated
ln -s /usr/local/psa/qmail/bin/sendmail sendmail
mv sendmail sendmail.up2dated
ln -s /usr/local/psa/qmail/bin/sendmail sendmail
It worked! Thanks, HostCrest!
