I understand this so my fix was wrong, but I see no reason to define cw file as optional when you not use it at all, so your choice is wrong too. We have only 2 cases 1) cw file is use via use_cw_file feature, in this case it is _required_ and not optional. This case is _not_ freebsd.mc case. 2) cw file is not used and not required, so define it as optional gives nothing but confusion. This case is freebsd.mc case we try to clarify. Since freebsd.mc treated as template, I suggest to not introduce optional _unused_ file as you do, but comment out its required usage by dnl. By removing dnl this variant can be turned in case 1) for users which really need case 1). dnl FEATURE(use_cw_file) dnl uncomment next line too dnl define(`confCW_FILE', `/etc/mail/sendmail.cw')dnl -- Andrey A.
