Ok...

Here's what I show:

namehere# telnet namehere 25
Trying 192.x.y.z...
Connected to namehere.digitaldeck.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 namehere.digitaldeck.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.6/8.12.6; Mon, 3 Mar
2003 16:22:53 -0800 (PST)

namehere# strings sendmail-4.7-i386-nocrypto.bin |grep 8.12
@(#)$Id: safefile.c,v 8.124 2002/05/24 20:50:15 gshapiro Exp $
8.12.6

I have been tracking RELENG_4_7 and it looks like 4.12.6 to me. So
again, I want to make sure that this version of Sendmail has been
patched. What's the best verification procedure to insure that the
patched version is online?
