Just letting you know how it went with the Resolver (miniedit). The error, pointed
out by you, solved the problem.

Now I have an even bigger problem. Sendmail works perfectly. But only on my XP
machine. As of Windows Vista, MS decided to remove certain privileges from the
SYSTEM user.

As a consequence, SYSTEM is no longer able to perform the 'setuid' function. This is
very much needed, since local mail has to be delivered by a mail delivery agent,
like procmail, running under the recipient's credentials.
