[rt-users] Problems with mailgateway

Ok. I found the error. Postfix' replacement copy of sendmail had been
overwritten by a Solaris update patch, so I was invoking the original
sendmail :-|

BUT all my problems are still not solved! If I choose 'reply' to an entry,
the 'TO' field is set to the requester as it should. If I choose 'send
response', it seems (from the syslog) that 'sendmail' never gets invoked.
If I however fill out the 'CC' field (with the same adress as in the 'TO'
field), 'sendmail' gets called and sends the message ok.

Could it be a bug in rt?
