Hi. I been using this sendmail package, but I have noticed is not compiled with ssl and auth support! I thought about creating a sendmail-ssl pkgbuild, but I think those features are quite important this days and it should be included in this package. (and most distros have sendmail compiled with them) so, may I ask to include them? I have edited the PKGBUILD, and you only need to add this lines, just before the "./Build || return 1" line: chmod +w devtools/OS/Linux echo -e "define(\`confSTDIO_TYPE', \`portable')\nAPPENDDEF(\`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', \`-DSTARTTLS')\nAPPENDDEF(\`conf_sendmail_LIBS', \`-lssl -lcrypto')\n">>devtools/OS/Linux echo "APPENDDEF(\`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', \`-DSASL=2')" >>devtools/OS/Linux echo "APPENDDEF(\`conf_sendmail_LIBS', \`-lsasl2')" >>devtools/OS/Linux Those lines will add cyrus-sasl as dependency, but ssl and auth is quite important for serious sendmail usage. Thanks :D

Beta indeed, but not with any new features. Instead, the release notes appear to only list bugfixes: http://www.sfr-fresh.com/unix/misc/sendmail.8.14.5.Beta0.tar.gz:a/sendmail-8.14.5.Beta0/RELEASE_NOTES But whatever floats your boat; I've installed it for now.

8.14.5 seems to be in Beta still. Is there a reason not to wait for the final release?

Some mirros have a sendmail 8.14.5 Beta0 since December 5: http://mirror.tje.me.uk/pub/mirrors/ftp.sendmail.org/pub/sendmail/sendmail.8.14.5.Beta0.tar.gz

Thanks for mazieres great effort. For some personal reason, I disowned the package. Could mazieres adopt it? Thank you.

I got an invalid user error with the package listed here. I'm a newb here as well, but mazieres's package worked great & I vote for it to replace the old one. Thanks mazieres!

Is this package still being maintained? I had several problems in the existing package, and so have put together an alternate sendmail package that seems to work better. I've posted it at the following URL: http://www.scs.stanford.edu/~dm/noindex/sendmail-8.14.4-2.src.tar.gz I don't want to step on anyone's toes, but if no one else is working on the problem, I would like to submit this package as a replacement. (I'm new to arch so don't know the etiquette for fixing problems in AUR packages.) Also, if anyone else is willing to try out my package, please post on here to let me know if it works.

Doesn't work on a freshly installed x86_64 box: - adduser is missing a -d flag for the home directory in install script - sendmail binary is not installed anywhere - configuration (.mc, .m4, etc.) files are not installed

For me, in addition to the problems mentioned below, the useradd command in pre_install() fails, displaying the usage information.
