new sendmail package release 20070405
This release is currently in production on my servers, under sendmail 8.13.7.
I'm looking towards upgrading to sendmail 8.14.1 shortly.

Highlights:
Added in a slew of DNSBL callbacks; basically, any rejection ($#error)
is now logged like the more common ones already were. This will help us
to track which tests are being used, and which are no longer catching
anything, so we can deprecate the obsolete checks. We'll also be able to
generate stats on test effectiveness, produce a standard rbldnsd-style
IP-based blacklist feed based on the aggregated stats.
This release now unpacks into enemieslist.com/dist/m4; I recommend
unpacking it in /usr/local. I'm working on a more comprehensive dist
format that will include the various policy, mc, and other files, to
allow for clean installs on virgin systems.
I've removed the embedded XML documentation from the package files; I'll
work on getting the docs autobuilt soon, but it seemed pointless to keep
distributing it as part of the m4 files. Just a heads up to Bryan and
anyone else who diffs the releases ;)
Those using postfix and exim: please contact me for information on how
to use the EL DNSBL lookup interface.
