    Default sendmail / exim question

    got this from a client, I am fairly sure I am using exim instead of sendmail. can I just have him change the path to 'usr/sbin/exim' ?

    The Software does not send email it only till your hosting server to send
    any email needed, some hosting email servers are real slow I have seen them
    take from 1 min to 12 hrs.

    This is the path your hosting servers sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail you can
    verify this with them just to make sure and also make sure they allow you
    access to the sendmail

    And this is the setup path for your hosting servers sendmail program found
    in the config.pl file (this is correct by the servers displyed paths
    setups):

    ########################################
    # You need to assign either a mail program or
    # a mail host so auction e-mails can be sent out.
    # If you are using sendmail ( most commenly used on UNIX/LINX Servers )
    # type the full directory path to your servers sendmail here.
    # Example: $config{'mailprog'} = '/usr/bin/senmail';
    # If you are using Sockets(SMTP) mail, rem this out using the # sign
    # like this #$config{'mailprog'} = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

    $config{'mailprog'} = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

    any suggestions?

    sendmail should work becuase there is a link from sendmail to exim.
    Just keeping my "eye" on things....
