I found the sendmail/sendmail.cf system as supplied to be more than inadequate.
We've replaced it with the IDA sendmail (V5.65+IDA-1.3.5).  It doesn't work
with frozen config files unless you supply a malloc that doesn't put critical
values in the data segment.  A getpwent.c file that hasn't been linked with
the system malloc is required as well.

What I wouldn't give for a straight 4.3 BSD-reno port for our 6K.  AIX is one
royal pain in the neck.  Btw, the IDA sendmail can be found on uxc.cso.uiuc.edu
in the pub directory.
