When sending e-mail to root it says,
to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:30, xdelay=00:00:00,
mailer=relay, pri=30339, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0,
stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]
Also, as much as possible, I don't want to run the sendmail daemon as
it is insecure, all I want to do is use sendmail to send e-mail to my
admin(root) account in my other box for whatever activities it detected.
