Sendmail is smashing the case of the arguments, so -C ends up as -c, which
takes an argument. )(*%%* sendmail.

This is an incredible pain.  It only happens with some versions of
sendmail, and even then not all the time.  (It has to do with whether or
not the message gets queued before delivery.)  One (hackish) thing you can
do is to edit digest, find the call to getopts, and change the 'C' to
something like 'z', and use -z in your digest alias.

Or you could play with your sendmail installation.
