I recently installed sendmail on my system (System V) and have
had no trouble other than the following:

There is a system that I exchange news articles with via a mail
route (using sendnews & uurec).  In my /usr/lib/aliases file I
have aliased rnews to 

	rnews: "|/usr/lib/news/uurec"

When the other site sends news to ethos with sendnews, the
article gets posted on my system without a hitch, but
nevertheless, they get this error message mailed back to them
from my MAILER-DAEMON.  My system is ethos, and his is dukempd:

Does anyone know what is going on or how I can stop the error
messages from being mailed back to dukempd?  Thanks for your
help.
