Sendmail will attempt to save rejected mail in the user's home dir file named
dead.letter if this file does not exist, sendmail will attempt to save this
information in /var/adm/dead.letter. If this error occurs you will need
to create the file /var/adm/dead.letter with read, and write, permissions for
owner and grp, and the owner needs to be root with the group mail.
1) touch /var/adm/dead.letter
2) chown root /var/adm/dead.letter
3) chgrp mail /var/adm/dead.letter
4) chmod 664 /var/adm/dead.letter
This should resolve the error "can not save rejected mail"
