sendmail crash

[Sandipan Panigrahi <pani@frontiernet.net>]

Hi, 
I am having trouble with the sendmail daemon on a RedHat 5.1
installation. sendmail dies sometimes and I would like to be
able to restart it automatically if it does. Right now it gets
started as a part of the /etc/rc.d/rc*/ boot time initialization.

To make it restart if it fails can I modify the /etc/inittab and add
an entry for sendmail ? Or can I have /etc/inetd.conf handle this ? 
Or is there any other option that I have.

Thanks
