sendmail TLS

Just thinking off the top of my head here, but wouldn't this require a
certificate to be present in the first place? Sendmail won't offer a TLS
connection (albeit one that FAILS) unless a certificate can be loaded.

I'd expect messages like this only when trying to connect to another MTA
that offers a TLS connection in the same way. If you just want to switch
off logging just reduce the O~~Logging value in sendmail.cf.
Alternatively, why worry? Everything seems to be behaving it's self...
