You forgot the makemap ... oh wait, sorry, the /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail
restart thing rebuilds all the databases I believe.

FWIW, the best way to restart sendmail (esp on a box with live queues) is kill
-HUP `head -n1 /var/run/sendmail.pid` :)

        --suresh

FWIW, here's a patch to the RH 6.x sendmail initscript by Per Hadeland, posted
