Thanks to all who answered. (And there were a lot of you.)

My question:

> Gatekeeper lists the most recent version of sendmail as 5.65, while
> elsewhere on the net there are much higher versions, e.g. 8.6.10.
>

The consensus: the most recent version is 8.7.1, available from
such places as

        ftp://info.cert.org/pub/tools/sendmail/
        ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/sendmail/
        ftp://ftp.auscert.org.au/pub/mirrors/ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/sendmail/
        ftp://ftp.cert.dfn.de/pub/tools/net/sendmail/

Everyone felt that we should install the newer version of sendmail,
although there might be some decnet incompatibilities.
