Because I have been there that is why I am here. Got more confused. And we run an ISP. We have been happy with the regular sendmail install that comes with all the versions of Freebsd. But sometimes to install patches and fixes or to apply kind of fixes to sendmail does not work. For example If you notice the Email sent Titled "Unsolicited Email". Is also by me. And the fixes that I get for sendmail I can not apply them. Thats is why I am trying to find out what kind of build is it. If you dont have an answer, please do not divert the topic. I appreciate your help.
