I have a Redhat 9 system completely patched to the latest BEFORE redhat stopped the support on it.
I downloaded all of the files here and nothing. Can't compile. In the RPM of the source files are the 2 patches (sendmail+mysql and sendmail-sql-make...) both of these refused to install and patch the system.
Ok, I went back to the original patches that are NOT part of the RPM... these actually patched the source and I was able to get to the MAKE.
whoops.. spoke too soon.. error with the ld -lpq command, can't link.
Ok, scratching head, lets try the sendmail+mysql RPM. Nope. dependancys on glibc-2.3.4 and libdb-4.2
Try and find an RPM for glibc2.3.4 no go, everythign says they pulled this glibc back... ohhh k
Got the libdb4.2 and installed that correctly, yet I can;t go any further.
ok here are my questions...
1) what redhat versions does this work with?
2) I have a sneaky suspicion that the glibc-2.3.4 was on Fedora ? Should I update to Fedora core 2?
Will it work then ?
3) I finally got it to compile once, BUT the patch that is in the source RPM didn;t allow it to compile with MYSQL..<scratches head some more> Are there any other RPMs available that do NOT require the glibc-2.3.4 ?
I *really* like the idea of putting things into a MYSQL file and I have some need of this. But I can;t get it to compile.
Should I just give up and install FEDORA ?

try postfix, it's working 100% and is preatty easy and flexible to run.
I have RedHat 9 system and am running sendmail+mysql on it for MTA but run postfix for MDA , it's running pretty smoothly.
more info on postfix may be found on www.postfix.org
good luck
