Question

I'm having a continuing problem with my new twiki installation and sending registration emails out. I have no errors or warnings in my config and what's more the registration emails get sent. However the new user gets a rather nasty page of errors. I don't get any errors in the emails or sendmail, so why is twiki freekin' out?

My config simply has the default email setup:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oi -oeq

And the error page after trying to register is the following:

An e-mail could not be delivered. Please notify your TWiki administrator, <myemailaddress>

Mail to: <myemailaddress>

Errors: ERROR: Exit code 17152 from TWiki::cfg{MailProgram} at /usr/share/perl/5.8/CGI/Carp.pm line 314. at /usr/share/perl/5.8/CGI/Carp.pm line 314

Too many failures sending mail 

Any thoughts? Thanks a million!
