That goes for FC1 also. "man sendmail" doesn't work, "man sendmail.sendmail"
works.

The first time I re-ran it also (I use MailScanner with sendmail in queue mode):

# service MailScanner restart
Shutting down MailScanner daemons:
         MailScanner:                                      [  OK  ]
         incoming sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
         outgoing sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
Starting MailScanner daemons:
         incoming sendmail: m4: m4: No such file or directory
*** ERROR: FEATURE() should be before MAILER()

                                                           [  OK  ]
         outgoing sendmail:                                [  OK  ]
         MailScanner:                                      [  OK  ]

The next and consecutive times I re-ran it, this error went away.

Regards,

Michael.
