What do the arguments:
-oi
and
-oem

do? I used to have no problem getting sendmail to work on my server online, but now it no longer does. I finally found a script on the net that works, and it's got those two options on the sendmail program. I'd like to know what they are though... and I can't seem to find the answer anywhere from google.
 
Log onto the server over telnet (preferably SSH) and type
Code:
man sendmail
or
Code:
sendmail /?

I have no experience with telnet.. how do I connect to it? I tried typing open then the server's ip, but it failed to connect
 
You could try;

#/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
$command=`man /your/path/to/sendmail`;
print "$command";

Dunno if it'll work, Its saturday and I still havent got my Linux box
