Subject:    KMail sendmail option not working

I'm setting up KMail 20.08, and trying to configure it to send mails using \
sendmail. I've tested my sendmail (actually postfix) configuration using \
the command line, and it successfully sends messages.

However, the postfix log file doesn't show anything when I try to send a \
message using KMail, and KMail simply puts the message to send into the \
outbox with no error message. "Send queued messages" does nothing either 

In the KMail configuration settings, in the Sending sub-tab of the Accounts \
tab, I added a sendmail account as the default (and only) account. I set \
the "sendmail location" field to /usr/sbin/sendmail, and left the "sendmail \
options" field blank. That's the same as a previously working KMail 4.14 \
setup.

The Mail Dispatcher Agent resource is shown in akonadiconsole as"ready to \
dispatch messages", and I've tried restarting it too.

Any help to get sendmail working with KMail would be much appreciated.
