Hi Blues,

   It seems that the error message:"Please check your mail first or restart your mail session." when users
   did not pop before sending mails, is missing.

   I have patched the current sendmail.cf.
   For some reason, if you dont pop and send mail the error goes to <FORGE> ruleset.
   
   Open for comment.
