 Upgrading to RH 6.0 involves a sendmail upgrade from 8.8.7 to 8.9.3.
 Different beasts, new features, requiring a new .cf file.

 What you should have done (and what I'm in fact doing in our Linux
 post-install script) is recreating sendmail.cf from the local .mc
 m4 macro file you used last time.
