I did not get 8.11.6 from sendmail.org.  I downloaded it from
redhat ftp, it is there in redhat linux7.2 's rpm folder.
While installing, it gives dependecy problem in
libcrypto.so.2 ( in pcq linux 7.1 there is libcrypto.so.1)
libdb .... ( this is also an old version in 7.1)
libssl ..... ( this is also an old version in 7.1)

I found that these can be solved by installing new openssl and db
from redhat linux 7.2)
but linux is not allowing me to install openssl because
other packages are dependent on libcrypto.so.1 , it is also not
allowing me to upgrade or erase -> install new package.

I have not tried with the tar.gz file from sendmail.org
i have 8.12.... in that case, which needs to be compiled.
i will try it today if it can work..

I downloaded sendmail8.12. .. - rpm from rpmfind.net.
and successfully installed.
i was wondering while sendmail8.11.6.rpm fails to install
how 8.12 could manage to install(with sendmail8.11.6-cf), but it does, it
installs.
but when i run sendmail and try to send some mails,
it says sendmail has died but pid still exists, i think it means,
it exists abnormally.

by the way which versions of db and m4 will be needed for
compiling sendmail 8 .12? will the versions comes with pcq linux 7.1 do?
