Sendmail is a powerful MTA, and you may find the sendmail-doc package
useful in the configuration phase. You should find even the few files
in /usr/share/doc/sendmail useful - they note recent Sendmail and Debian
changes, along with information on the features present in this package.

7 -> 8 bit (QP/Base64) decoding is no longer done by default as it
doesn't respect character set differences (ie, utf-8).
If you wish to keep this functionality, you'll need to update your
sendmail.mc to include the following line:
MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(\`local', \`+9') # mime7to8

---> IMPORTANT NOTICE <---
If you want to use TLS and/or AUTH, you *MUST* update your
sendmail.mc and optionally submit.mc for these to work !
If you do *NOT* update prior to sendmail being restarted, those
features will simply *STOP* working !!!
To allow SASL (SMTP AUTH), you must add this line to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:
include(\`/etc/mail/sasl/sasl.m4')dnl
For TLS (STARTTLS), you need this:
include(\`/etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4')dnl

The group smmsp may have been created within the user, not
system range. To correct this issue, the group will be deleted
and recreated.
For this to work, you will need to let sendmailconfig run, or
manually run /usr/share/sendmail/update_sendmail immediately
after saying 'no' to the sendmailconfig questions.
EOT

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
if test ! -z "$version" && \
(dpkg --compare-versions "$version" lt "8.12.2-1"); then
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
smrsh functionality has moved from /usr/lib/sm.bin to /etc/mail/smrsh.
Sendmail will populate the directory with some of the more common MDAs
(procmail,maildrop,deliver,etc.) that are installed, but doesn't know
about listserver type programs (majordomo, mailman, etc.) So you'll
need to place links to those binaries in /etc/mail/smrsh.
Also, if you add a new MDA, you'll need to rerun sendmailconfig to
make sure the MDA is available for smrsh processing!
EOT
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
Sendmail has changed to use the standard uid/gid smmsp for the MSP.
If you've not changed queue directories, you'll be all set.
However, if you've moved queue directories, you'll need to make sure
that all of them are 0750 root:smmsp

if test ! -z "$version" && \
(dpkg --compare-versions "$version" lt "8.12.0-1"); then
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
The automatic virtual-host changes have been removed because
they caused problems for some people...
If you need to do ip based virtual hosting, add HACK(\`virthost_by_ip')dnl
to your sendmail.mc and read /usr/share/doc/sendmail/op/op.{ps,txt}.gz
for the 'b' modifier to DAEMON_OPTIONS.
EOT
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
If you'd like to support MSP->MTA and/or MTA->MTA authentication, you
can get a good start by using HACK(\`debian_auth')dnl.
EOT
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
The commands 'mailq' and 'hoststat' are now useable by normal users.
EOT
Notice_Item <<-EOT;
Sendmail now defaults to being uid=mail (instead of daemon) when
calling the MDA to deliver mail. This means that if you have files
that are written to by the MDA, they need to be writable by uid=mail!

/etc/mail/sendmail.conf, please edit the file to your needs.

Notice_Item <<-EOT;
Sendmail has extended control over queue management, and these changes
can cause a performance drop if you don't change your local
configuration.
Old:
MaxDaemonChildren controlled number of listener *and* queue runners
Sendmail would fork as many children as needed to run the queues
New:
MaxDaemonChildren still works as a total limit
MaxQueueChildren limits *only* the number of total queue runners
MaxRunnersPerQueue limits the number of runners per individual
queue (in 8.11+, you can have multiple queues) -- *AND* you
can override this global limit on per queue basis!
MaxQueueRunSize limits the number of messages processed per queue run
Sendmail only forks upto MaxRunnersPerQueue for each queue per run
The gotcha here is that MaxRunnersPerQueue defaults to one !
I've changed the default MaxRunnersPerQueue to 5, so deliveries aren't
single threaded, but you may want to have more or less than 5.
