If you're tracking 4-STABLE or 5-CURRENT you should definitely have
sendmail-8.12.8 if you cvsup now.  Other branches may differ.

You can tell what version is currently running on your system by
telnet'ing to the SMTP port and looking at the banner:

    % telnet smtp.infracaninophile.co.uk 25
    Trying 81.2.69.218...
    Connected to smtp.infracaninophile.co.uk.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    220 smtp.infracaninophile.co.uk ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.8/8.12.8; Mon, 3 Mar 2003 23:40:05 GMT

	Cheers,

	Matthew
