ls -l /usr/lib64/sendmail

I had the same issue before upgrading (was running 3.1).  "        ) |  -t $MAILOPTS" is the line of the control_rancid where it hangs.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

It works and collects diffs and shows them in the repository and i have the cvs web working, but i cannot get it to e-mail me the diffs and am getting an error in the var/logs only when there are diffs.  it errors on the control_rancid portion of it i can send mail through postfix with both the sendmail and mail command.  I installed postfix after sendmail fail as i thought it was my problem.  Below is the log of both and the control_rancid, and yes i am a newbie
