Just untar it and read the install docs. Most likely, at least on linux,
you can just do a ./configure and make install without any hassles.
CAUTION: ~Dont~ try installing it on a production server if you are trying
this for the first time (in fact, never do it even if you have years of
experience in sendmail <g>). Compile it on some linux box or the other
and check it out first, before you install it on your REC's mailserver.
Note that a lot has changed since 8.9.3 - read through all the articles
here if you want to upgrade to 8.10.
If you don't want to compile from the tarball available at
ftp.sendmail.org, check out
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/rawhide/1.0/i386/RedHat/RPMS/sendmail-8.10.0-1.i386.html

FWIW, Sendmail 8.10 implements the anti-spam features specified in RFC
2505 - see http://sendmail.net/?feed=interview810-5 for more information.
