Also, note this from 8.11.2 (to be MFC'ed to RELENG_4 in the near future): When attempting to canonify a hostname, some broken name servers will return SERVFAIL (a temporary failure) on T_AAAA (IPv6) lookups. If you want to excuse this behavior, compile sendmail with -D_FFR_WORKAROUND_BROKEN_NAMESERVERS. However, instead, we recommend catching the problem and reporting it to the name server administrator so we can rid the world of broken name servers. You can do this in your FreeBSD build by adding this to /etc/make.conf: SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-D_FFR_WORKAROUND_BROKEN_NAMESERVERS To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
