Yes.  Try reading the error messages and exploring your system.
I'm told that these are things they expect system administrators
to do.

It says:

> Failed to exec mailer "/usr/lib/sendmail -fcrc -t": No such file or
> directory

And, in fact, if you check out your system, you may find sendmail isn't
in /usr/lib.

In fact, *I* checked out your system, and I know it's in /usr/sbin.

See if you can figure out how I checked, and whether or not it was a
major security breach.)
