Re: tlug: Sendmail 8.8.8

[Sean Bennett <sean@example.com>]

Thanks;

I upgraded to 8.9.1; now when I try

    telnet localhost 25

I get

    ...~Sendmail ESMTP 8.9.1/8.8.8~...

(before the upgrade, returned  ...~Sendmail ESMTP 8.8.8/8.8.8~...)

What does the 8.8.8 after the / represent;  is this the sendmail.cf file; do
I have the full upgrade, or is my butt still wide open (so to speak :-)...

Sean.
