Thanks for the effort :-) Please note however, that the sendmail update
was a joint effort some time ago, but unfortunately it never got released:
  http://lists.opencsw.org/pipermail/maintainers/2009-October/010012.html
The Garification was done after the sendmail Owen uses and it would
be good to keep a close eye on it. But it is really good we are coming along
with this to get it updated!

Thanks also Brian and Mike (although you probably don't read this).

Sebastian: You also did some testing, any feedback?


Thanks and best regards
