[rt-users] Problem(s) receiving mail via rt-mailgate

Can one ever be sure when it's software for which one does not have the
source?  #;-))

I did the strings | grep "thingie" as suggested on www.sendmail.org and
looked a the smrsh man page.  Both of these "tests" would indicate that
/usr/adm/sm.bin is the directory used by OS X. [Can anyone confirm or
deny this?]

As for permissions, I have:

/usr/adm/sm.bin
drwxr-xr-x  4 root   wheel   136 May 29 17:28 ./
drwxr-xr-x  4 root   wheel   136 May 29 17:28 ../
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root   wheel    24 May 29 17:28 rt-mailgate ->
/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate

and

/opt/rt3/bin
drwxr-xr-x   8 root   admin    272 May 19 03:09 ./
drwxr-xr-x  10 root   admin    340 May 19 03:09 ../
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root   rt     18487 May 12 17:31 rt-mailgate

That makes everything executable and I'm not aware of any other
conditions that need to be satisfied for Sendmail+smrsh ... but that
doesn't mean there aren't any.  [Anyone know whether there's a flaw in
this setup?]

I guess I could actually turn off the smrsh feature and see what happens,
but I'd not want to run it without smrsh and it does seem pretty clear
that that's where the issue is.

Any ideas?
