But wait, there's more...
Thanks Aniseed. I checked that option before and either I am doing it wrong, or it isn't what I am after. This is what I am using (I tried each of the 3 options because I wasn't sure how the parameter was passed):
cat header no_data.msg | /usr/lib/sendmail -t -N"NEVER"
cat header no_data.msg | /usr/lib/sendmail -t -NNEVER
cat header no_data.msg | /usr/lib/sendmail -t -Nnever
The header is created with the e-mail addresses within and then passed to the sendmail as shown.
I think I left some important information out, too. I don't have root or an administrator account. The e-mail accounts are not on the machine, they are external.
Thanks a lot!
