Thanks =)

Was empty. Perhaps I forgot to restart something when I deleted the old one.

following the installation instructions I had already done this.

No messages, so obviously sendmail didnt try to deliver.

Well, I have to admit yes and no. When I tried to deliver via socket it was
running. When I tried via TCP it wasn't (doh). Anyways, even when I started
it it didnt work. I now got 'Connection accepted' messages in the log but
still the messages didnt reach the mailbox. Therfore I gave up on sendmail and
installed postfix which now (with TCP, sockets wouldn't work also) does its job
=)
So thanks again, case cleared =)
