Subject:   Anti-SPAM and "makemap dbm"

I am thoroughly confused about all the Berkelely "db" packages now...  I
wanted to add the capability to have sendmail block mail from a list of
domains, IPs, etc. from a database:

http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/%7Eca/email/chk-newmap.html

But makemap (supplied with sendmail) complains when given the dbm
arguement:

-|super-g|-$ makemap dbm SpamDomains.db < ./spammers 
makemap: Type dbm not supported in this version

I started reading about dbm, ndbm, etc. but I really can't make heads or
tails of what all the differences are.  "db" is "newdb", but "dbm" is
"ndbm" which is also new, but theres also db 2.0 which is GPL-ish and
doesn't work with Sendmail...

Has anyone gotten this to work?

Thanks,

Charles
