You do realize that sendmail usually runs as user mail. Make sure your 
bugs.log is writable by the mail user. What I did was create a separate 
directory specifically for the log owned by user mail so that the log file 
can be created. The down side to this was that the file was created as 
owned by user mail in group mail and file permissions 600.
        -C
