I have a system (Gentoo) running hobbit. I have installed the 4.20 with the all-in-one patch.

The system is using nullmailer as my preferred MTA. It is a very small, minimal qmail-like MTA run under daemontools.

/usr/sbin/sendmail is the 'wrapper' for email submissions, but it does not accept a subject on the command line (eg: -s "this is the subject") the way the sendmail does:

--[snip]--

sendmail -h

sendmail: option -h requires a value. usage: sendmail [flags] [recipients] <message Nullmailer sendmail emulator -B Ignored -b Ignored -C Ignored -d Ignored -F Set the full name of the sender -f Set the envelope sender address -h Ignored -i Ignored -L Ignored -m Ignored -N Ignored -n Ignored -O Ignored -o Ignored -p Ignored -q Ignored -R Ignored -r An alternate and obsolete form of the -f flag -t Read message for recipients -U Ignored -V Ignored -v Ignored -X Ignored

-h, --help Display this help and exit --[snip]--

It requires that the email message being sent to (through?) it contains a "Subject:" line in the header.

Without me changing to another MTA, is there a way to tell hobbit that this is what I need? Changing would be OK if that was the only way forme to get hobbit to send me notifications.

Thanks!
