However, I have been using sendmail 8.12.6 from the base install of freebsd 4.6.2 release and I believe that installing sendmail from the ports collection will add files to /usr/local rather then /usr where sendmail is currently located. From the research I've done after I install sendmail from the ports collection, I will need to add the following lines to sendmail.mc file: define(`confEBINDIR', `/usr/local/libexec')dnl define(`UUCP_MAILER_PATH', `/usr/local/bin/uux')dnl as well as change the mailer.conf file.

I'm also running 8.11.6. I installed the correct patch from sendmail.org but haven't figured out how to get it to compile. The README says: ********************* !! DO NOT USE MAKE !! in this directory to compile sendmail -- ********************* instead, use the "Build" script located in the sendmail directory. However, there is no "Build" script. Now what?
