Sendmail errors in system.log from startup

[Zim]

I can start sendmail by hand just fine after boot, but during the boot, I find the following error messages in /var/log/system.log

Apr 5 22:06:22 zimmy sendmail[226]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR: putoutmsg (NO-HOST): error on output channel sending "451 4.0.0 fill_fd: before readcf: fd 1 not open: Bad file descriptor": Input/output error
Apr 5 22:06:22 zimmy sendmail[226]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): fill_fd: before read cf: fd 1 not open: Bad file descriptor
Apr 5 22:06:22 zimmy sendmail[226]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): fill_fd: before read cf: fd 2 not open: Bad file descriptor

I boot with Terminal opening (via the Login) panel and can immediately execute

sudo /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q1h &

with no trouble.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mike

Try taking out that "&"

I did that and it started up with the system just fine.
