Hi all.

I recently CVSupped stable and noticed changes to
/usr/src/etc/mail/sendmail.cf.additions.  I keep this file as an m4-hack
so I just copied it over the top of my current one, as I didn't see any
new class files added.  Mistake, but hey, sendmail rules are pretty over
my head to be honest.

Anyway - I noticed a few days later that I was refusing mail for domains
that I was a secondary MX for... where as I wasn't before.  Seems there
are some class name changes that didn't make it into the top of the file.

My diffs are:

Also, I noticed that relaying is allowed by default.  Do we think that's a
good idea... ie. Seeing as the reason people stick these rules in is to
protect against spam, shouldn't anty-relaying be un-commented by default?


Cheers.


Scot.
