Where do I have to take the appropriate actions to get thing working
properly.

I have ran configure several times followed by make ; make install 
The machine is IBM RS-6000 with AIX 4.2 and sendmail 
spock.xm.klm.nl ESMTP Sendmail AIX4.2/UCB 8.7
as shipped with AIX.

Who can help me.

regards Pieter.
