You may also choose to backport sendmail or what-ever you want to use.. This is what I do when I want to run something new on a stable dist.. add an untable deb-src line in /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get update apt-get source <package> cd <dir-of-unpacked-source> do repeat: check/edit debian/rules check/edit debian/control edit debian/Changelog to reflect your changes (for own pice of mind) do 'dpkg-buildpackage' go for a coffee/coke/smoke/beer/what-ever :until succees dpkg -i ../<package>.deb cross fingers I dunno what debian policy says about this, never read it.. but it works for me.
