[webmin-l] Filesystem Backup module not sending email

I'm running Webmin 1.200 under Linux. Recently, the Filesystem Backup module has stopped sending the confirmation email after the backup is complete. The backup runs fine, but the email generates an error.

Typical log entry from /var/logmail/errors:
May 6 20:35:14 hls-web postfix/sendmail[10889]: fatal: usage: sendmail [options]

The Backup-Config module works fine and sends the email, as does the Virtualmin module. It's just the Filesystem Backup.

Anyone have any ideas?

On it's Module Config page, check the 'Send mail via SMTP server'
option. You might want to try changing it to the default, or setting it
to localhost if you are running a mail server on the system running
Webmin.
