Cathy, thanks for the pointers. Here is how I solved the notifications issue.
1. Permission issues: My system did not have the permission as follows - (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2002060609535245)
-r-xr-sr-x root smmsp ... /PATH/TO/sendmail
drwxrwx--- smmsp smmsp ... /var/spool/clientmqueue
drwx------ root wheel ... /var/spool/mqueue
-r--r--r-- root wheel ... /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
-r--r--r-- root wheel ... /etc/mail/submit.cf
2. In /var/lib/aolserver/open_qualex/packages/acs-tcl/tcl dir I need to -
cp base64-procs.tcl base64.tcl
cp md5-procs.tcl md5.tcl
cp mime-procs.tcl mime.tcl
3. /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail start
4. To get the emails from inside, I had to setup the smart relay to my mail server inside /etc/mail/sendmail.cf -
DShostname.domain.com
