Thanks for the reply....exactly that...i want the mail to be delivered to
root at localhost....but is i say...i got it stucked in the queue deferred....

I didn't touch the sendmail conf..as far as i remember..also i dont know
much about sendmail conf so it would be difficult that i had modified
it...I'll check though....

thanks...and have a nice weekend all
