According to Brandon Lockhart:
> engulf[2]:/etc# makemap -v dbm /etc/virtusertable
> makemap: Type dbm not supported in this version

That's expected, see my other message.

> engulf[3]:/etc# makemap -v hash /etc/virtusertable
> engulf[4]:/etc# killall -9 sendmail
> engulf[5]:/etc# sendmail -bd -q15m

You don't need the last two steps for tables. Killing sendmail with "-9" is 
not a good idea anyway.

> Mail not send.  Sending error: 451 hash map "virtuser": unsafe map file

Have a look at the file and directory permissions: file should be 644
root:<whatever> and directory should be 755 root:<whatever>.

Recent sendmail enforce "root" ownership (as it should do). Default
ownership for many files in FreeBSD is unfortunately "bin".

Did you read the documentation ?
