Internet and Networking Services

Base HP-UX Internet Services (new)

Chapter 10 189

Used to allow eight bit header when set to TRUE.

PrivacyOptions=noetrn

The noetrn ﬂag will disable the SMTP ETRN

command that forces sendmail to process its queue

asynchronously.

PrivacyOptions=noverb

The noverb ﬂag will disable the SMTP VERB

command that causes sendmail to enter the

verbose mode and activate the deliver mode.

• Support for new mailer and map class:

Mailer: discard

A special internal delivery agent named ‘discard’ is

now deﬁned for use with check_* rulesets and

header checking rulesets.

Map class: regex

Sendmail-8.9.3 supports regular expressions using

the new map class ‘regex’. The reqex map can be

used to see if an address matches a certain regular

expression. By using such a map in a check_*

ruleset, you can block a certain range of addresses

that would otherwise be considered valid.

• Anti-spam conﬁguration control. To enable some of the new

anti-spamming rulesets, a shell script gen_cf is provided in the

/usr/newconfig/etc/mail/cf/cf directory.

• New header checks. New syntax to do limited checking of header

syntax is available.
