Well.. um.. I don't want to start an MTA war.. but if sendmail is
aggravatin' ya you should check out qmail.
If anything it's good educational reading.

Subject: [suse-security] sendmail
| Hi,
| I jist tried to update our smtp to 8.9.3-55. I downloaded from
sendmail.org
| and.. guess what ... it didn't work :-(
| The system tells me:
|
| failed dependencies:
| libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
| libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
| libdb.so.2(GLIBC_2.0) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
| libnsl.so.1(GLIBC_2.0) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
| libnsl.so.1(GLIBC_2.1) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
| libresolv.so.2(GLIBC_2.0) is needed by sendmail-8.9.3-55
|
| Hmm, did I forgot to install something or do I have to upgrade another
| package before updating sendmail ?
|
| Okay, I know, some of you will say "What does this have to do with
| security", but I tried to update in order to to close relaying, to fix
some
| DoS-attacks, and so on. Is this security-related enough ? Thanks :-))
|
| Thanks in advance for your help.
|
| Oh, please no RTFM-replies. If I knew where to look, I would ! :-)
