Clearly Sendmail has their work cut out for them in regards to documentation - it's a mess. (ie the info above should be in the Sendmail README file, I would think) I'd offer to help but my knowledge of Sendmail is so rudimentary I'd probably hurt more than help.. Phil -- Philip J.

4.6 - sendmail: libsm.a and libsmutil.a
make installworld does not install the libsm.a and libsmutil.a libraries from the sendmail 8.12.3 package (only libmilter is installed). They remain in /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libsm and /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libsmutil and are not installed to /usr/lib (but some libmilter programs need them to build) Why that behaiviour?
