Hi All, I had some problems with Sendmail a few weeks ago and it was suggested that I upgrade. I am finally able to do this but am now experiencing further problems. I downloaded 8.13 but the instructions just seem to lead me in circles sending me from one readme to another. Ok, so it tells me the easiest way to build sendmail is to type sh Build in the Sendmail directory. I just get an error: %sh build build: Can't open build: No such file or directory %sh Build Configuration: pfx=, os=FreeBSD, rel=4.4-RELEASE, rbase=4, rroot=4.4-RELEASE, arch=i386, sfx=, variant=optimized Using M4=/usr/bin/m4 Creating /usr/home/rob/sendmail-8.13.0/obj.FreeBSD.4.4-RELEASE.i386/sendmail using /usr/home/rob/sendmail-8.13.0/devtools/OS/FreeBSD sed: 1: "s/ //g ": unterminated substitute pattern sed: 1: "s/ //g ": unterminated substitute pattern ERROR: /usr/bin/m4 failed; You may need a newer version of M4, at least as new as System V or GNU I see that it is using M4=/usr/bin/m4 so do I need to perform some sort of upgrade on that file first? I also see that the instructions tell me to create any necessary site configuration build files, as noted in devtools/Site/README. Well this particular Readme tells me nothing on how to perform these file creations. I have read through all the readme and install files and just can't seem to get any further. Any help really appreciated. I am upgrading from 8.11.6. Rob.
