Hi Managers,

I am seeking advice on the best way to remove sendmail as installed
on Digital Unix 4.0D. There doesn't seem to be an individual setld package
that I can remove.

I would like to be able install the latest sendmail from source
without having to worry about clobbering it when installing
a patch cluster. Is this possible?

Is there any reason to install sendmail into the locations DEC use,
eg /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.cf (??!!), or should I just use the
default locations that sendmail would ordinarily use?

Any gotchas when installing your own sendmail with C2 features enabled?
Also, in general, have people found the "generic-osf1.mc" to be
adequate when building a sendmail.cf file using m4?


with thanks in advance,

Brian
