Hi Venu
I had a similar problem to this on a Linux server recently and found that someone/something had stopped the sendmail service on the server.
The following parameters in the call to DSSendMail were not mentioned in the file 'dssendmail_template.txt': server
This message didn't seem to affect the ability to send mail once the service was running though and doesn't produce a warning either.
You could try the DSTestMail utility from Manager but I have a feeling that it will give you the same message.
Cheers

Again this was on a Linux Red Hat server so I'm not sure how it works on Unix.
From root directory I type "setup" and it opens up a menu with "System Services" on it. In System Services I look for the sendmail service and check that it started as indicated by a *
I'll let you know if I find out how it works on Unix but don't hold your breath.
Cheers

Hi Venu,
You can check whether the sendmail service on your Unix box is running or not, by issuing the below command:
$ ps -ef | grep "sendmail"
If you dont get any output row, then contact your Network (or System) Administrator. Ask him to start/refresh the sendmail daemon.
FYI, The sendmail command uses a configuration file (the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file by default) to set operational parameters and to determine how the command parses addresses. This file is a text file that you can edit with other text editors. After modifying sendmail.cf, refresh the sendmail daemon.
Cheers!!
