In many versions of mail, the environment variable is $sendmail (lower case) rather than $SENDMAIL. Also, the existing mail delivery program may not be /usr/lib/sendmail; on my system it is "/bin/mail". It may be more convenient to put a set sendmail=$HOME/mysendmail command in your .mailrc file. If you want everyone on the system to use the local version of sendmail, put the set command in the global mail rc file. (Berkeley /usr/lib/Mail.rc, SysV /usr/lib/mailx/mailx.rc). -- "Christ died for our sins. Dare we make his martyrdom meaningless by not committing them?"
