sendmail upgraded from version 8.9.3 to version 8.11.1. Important changes
include: new default file locations (see
/usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README); newaliases is limited to root and
trusted users; and the MSA port (587) is turned on by default. See

mail.local(8) is no longer installed as a set-user-id binary. If you are
using a /etc/mail/sendmail.cf from the default sendmail.cf included with
FreeBSD any time after 3.1.0, you are fine. If you are using a
hand-configured sendmail.cf and mail.local for delivery, check to make sure
the F=S flag is set on the Mlocal line. Those with .mc files who need to
add the flag can do so by adding the following line to their your .mc file
and regenerating the sendmail.cf file:
MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `+S')dnl
Note that FEATURE(`local_lmtp') already does this.
The default /etc/mail/sendmail.cf disables the SMTP EXPN and VRFY commands.
vacation(1) has been updated to use the version included with sendmail.
The sendmail(8) configuration building tools are installed in
/usr/share/sendmail/cf/.
awk has been upgraded from gawk-3.0.4 to gawk-3.0.6. This fixes a number
of non-critical bugs and includes a few performance tweaks.
