Take a look at www.sendmail.org: there's a new version and security
patches.
You must use makesendmail (in the sources directory) instead of make.
It is worthy to read the latest CERT and correctly configure sendmail.
It is not necesary tu use the default deamon, and you MUST install
smrsh. I had some problems due to that in the past, and even now
crackers love to read my mail and forward it all over !
