Actually maybe it should have been "echo $status". The point is to display
the exit status the command:
/bin/sh -c "/applic/ath/majordomo/wrapper resend -l psi -h callisto.pas.rochester.edu psi-outgoing"
If the exit status is 1 you get unknown mailer error 1.
If the exit status is 0 sendmail is happy.
echo $status should print out which it is.
If you can't get it a 0 out of it, then create a shell script, say resend2
or whatever with contents:
#!/bin/sh
/applic/ath/majordomo/wrapper resend -l psi -h callisto.pas.rochester.edu psi-outgoing
exit 0
and make the alias
psi: "|/whatever/resend2"
...temporarily to get the list going ?
