sendmail

[miles bader]

The sendmail I have has an annoying habit of give the message
 Cannot open /dev/console: Bad file number
every single time it's run.  It's not really a big deal, since it
doesn't seem to affect anything, but it is annoying, and it screws
up emacs smail.

It also seems rather strange, as EBADF is not one of the errors
that open() can die on...

Any explanations???
