Makking sendmail pass TEMP & PERM "explanation strings" to sendmail.cf is a good idea nyway (IMHO). I hope sendmail will fix it before non beta release of sendmail-8.13.
Is the report to sendmail developer need for it ?
YES
And that do you think about expand smmapd and sendmail's socket map for sending all mail's header to cyrus for sieve checking for reject rules ?
If you want to make MTA reject messages based on headers then it should be done in reply to "the final dot" (otherwise the gain is too little). It creates a lot of problems for multi recipient messages - you can only reject message to *all* recipients at this stage. Spammers are ready to use/abuse every "blind spot".
Some time ago I suggested passing to cyrus sieve parameters available at "RCPT TO:" stage for cyrus recipients (connecting host IP and name, envelope sender address, envelope recipient address) to allow cyrus sieve reject messages before message body is transmitted.
I think that it is worth adding special "envelope-reject" sieve scripts to cyrus [previous suggestion was different]
