Ok, I updated the package and included setti's services (thanks!) with a small change. @Demon: It seems the check_smmsp function was there because sendmail expects user and group to exist before doing "make install". I have changed the makefile so that is no longer necessary, so the check_smmsp function is gone :) Also, now is compiled with STARTTLS auth support.

Missing systemd service.

Agreed with chris_l, I need ssl and auth support, too. Also, what's this thing with check_smmsp function? This should go to the install file, IMHO.

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.
