The majority recommended installing the latest version of sendmail. TCP
wrappers was mentioned as a possible temporary fix. TIS firewall
(www.tis.com), procmail, and qmail were also mentioned. I chose to do TCP
wrappers as a temporary fix. I will install the lastest version of
sendmail later.
Again, thanks to all of you that offered help.
