hello - i have been able to install sendmail on my home centOS7 box but not the interserver one.

i simply do:

yum -y install sendmail sendmail-cf m4 ;
systemctl start sendmail ;

this works fine on my home centOS box, but here on interserver i get this message:

systemctl start sendmail;
Job for sendmail.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See "systemctl status sendmail.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

systemctl status sendmail.service;

i am ready to reload the OS on the interserver control panel and see if that works, but thought i would check here first.

systemctl status sendmail.service may show more info.

check logs with journalctl -xf and poste them here.

Marks issue was most likely that postfix was already installed.
