Mine does all this without errors but I don't get the email.

BackupServer:/usr/share/backuppc/bin$ ./BackupPC_sendEmail -u egonzales AT 
buckeyeusd DOT org
Sending test email using /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f backuppc
BackupServer:/usr/share/backuppc/bin$

What exactly are you typing?

I did the following and it worked:

su apache (I run backuppc as the user apache)

./BackupPC_sendEmail -u my.email.address AT drdos DOT info
Sending test email using /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f BackupPC
