does the new sendmail bug affect 8.11.x?

2003-09-17 Thread Eric Sproul
Hi, Does anyone know if the new Sendmail bug: http://www.sendmail.org/8.12.10.html affects 8.11.x? I have a few non-Debian boxes still running 8.11.7 (the 3/31 patch didn't bump the version number), and I haven't been able to find any specific info. Thanks, Eric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [
