I am trying to reinstall sendmail on Redhat 6.2. I did the command rpm -e --nodeps sendmail*. That all went fine and dandy. When I went to reinstall sendmail I typed in rpm -Uhv sendmail* and it said sendmail-cf is already installed. How do I uninstall this rpm?

Did you do a 'depmod' after you uninstalled it?
