Ultrix 3.1 sendmail

The sendmail that I run on DECWRL is Berkeley's 5.61, as you pointed out
later in this article.  It also has the IDA support and a lot of bug fixes,
performance improvements, and the inevitable bunch of "#ifdef ultrix"'s.

No warrantees on this, obviously, but the sources are on gatekeeper.dec.com
in /pub/DEC/wrl-sendmail.tar.Z.  You'll need libndbm.a, which doesn't come
with Ultrix but is on the BSD source tapes.  You can try GNU dbm, but I had
bad luck with it (perhaps there's a newer version by now).

My sendmail does the right thing with $w, among lots of other things.
