newbie simple?: where is my sendmail folder?

Ask your admin, right? Well, I called the admin help desk, & they gave me the pop server name (the guy didn't know what I was talking about). Lotsa help.

So, any pointers where to look? I'm doing this for a school project, and I'm obviously a little over my head with perl. I may take a course next semester, but that's not helping me now, and this site is due tomorrow. I'm just trying to add in a simple mail form script.

I've got the mail path off my FTP:
/nfs/home/l/[my username]/mail

Is that what I'm looking for? Can I tell the script to send the forms there? Am I missing something? Do I need to put the rest of the domain before /nfs? Or do I need to hunt down the IT people in person tomorrow?

I'm sorry to trouble you with such an ignorant question, but desperate time...

Spike!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Another_Spike

isn't it
/usr/bin/sendmail/
or
/usr/sbin/sendmail/
or
/usr/lib/sendmail/

I am not sure, it depends on the OS.

You could maybe wander around sendmail.org

If you have shell access, simply do this :

which sendmail

That will give you the sendmail location.
