You still have errors in your config file. Did you delete and
recreate it? If so, what commands did you use?

Your config still has those wrong values for 1 and 2. You need to get
rid of them. I'd suggest moving the entire ~/.rss2email directory
somewhere and starting fresh.

Sendmail shouldn't have anything to do with things at this point. The
config you quoted had this:
> 7 SMTP_SEND=1
That tells r2e to send via SMTP, using the value in SMTP_SERVER.
