That's weird. It isn't happening to me..

I don't know what buggers PINE, but it seems to be older problem.
You can circumvent it by using following entry in your .pinerc:
sendmail-path=/usr/lib/sendmail -oem -t -oi
Hmm... At one Linux/intel box I was able to see it finally:
...
19993 execve("/usr/sbin/sendmail", ["/usr/sbin/sendmail", "-bs", "-odb", "-oem"], [/* 18 vars */]) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
19993 write(2, "Can\'t exec /usr/sbin/sendmail -"..., 75) = 75
19993 _exit(-1) = ?
No, does not make sense...
$ /usr/sbin/sendmail -bs -odb -oem
220 purje.tmt.tele.fi ESMTP Sendmail 8.8.7/8.8.7; Thu, 9 Sep 1999 09:44:29 +0300
quit
221 purje.tmt.tele.fi closing connection
$ /usr/lib/sendmail -bs -odb -oem
220 purje.tmt.tele.fi ESMTP Sendmail 8.8.7/8.8.7; Thu, 9 Sep 1999 09:44:23 +0300
quit
221 purje.tmt.tele.fi closing connection
As it is SENDMAIL that has same problem, I don't think ZMailer
is guilty of anything..
