Sendmail 8.14.0 is out

[Randal, Phil]

Sendmail 8.14.0 was released on February 1st - release notes here:

  http://www.sendmail.org/releases/8.14.0.php

RPMs for Redhat-based Linux distros can be found over at

  http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/mail/

Of particular interest are these new features:

	CONFIG: New FEATURE(`require_rdns') to reject messages from SMTP
		clients whose IP address does not have proper reverse
DNS.
		Contributed by Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois
University
		and John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
	CONFIG: New FEATURE(`block_bad_helo') to reject messages from
SMTP
		clients which provide a HELO/EHLO argument which is
either
		unqualified, or is one of our own names (i.e., the
server
		name instead of the client name).  Contributed by Neil
		Rickert of Northern Illinois University and John Beck of
		Sun Microsystems.
	CONFIG: New FEATURE(`badmx') to reject envelope sender addresses
		(MAIL) whose domain part resolves to a "bad" MX record.
		Based on contribution from William Dell Wisner.

Cheers,

Phil
