As far as I can tell, there are no vulnerabilities by reusing the old
configs, so I will let you get back to more important things on the list
and play around and research independantly for the time being.
Thanks for everything!

I don't know what those diffs you're talking about are, so I'll have to agree that being cautious to avoid breaking thing is the best path to take. :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

It depends on what the old version of Sendmail was. What do you get
when you telnet to port 25?
: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:33]/home/giorgos$ telnet 0 25

The two version numbers after "ESMTP Sendmail" above are, in order,
the version of the Sendmail executable and the version of the
sendmail.cf file.

I will play with this on a test box, but not on production. Looks like it
is trying to merge some lines that I am not overly confident will produce
successful results.

Nice :)
You should really run mergemaster and let it merge all the necessary
changes to /etc though. Not just the password file.

Sorry, the output is 'Binary files differ'. The /etc/mail Makefile is
binary, the former is not.
The copy of the new Makefile did not work, It states that it 'Do not know
how to make freebsd.submit.cf'. By driving through mergemaster, I can see
that I will destroy what is working of sendmail :o)
Is there any reason that I can't stay with the old config files? I can't
afford to break sendmail at this time. If it is not a security risk to
remain with old config files against the newest binary, I will just leave
it sit for now until I can dig up more info.

Yes I just upgraded last week. 4.3->RELENG_4.
I did do mergemaster, but only on the password file.
I will copy the latter file to /etc/mail and give it a test.

Have you upgraded recently? Did you run mergemaster after installworld?
What is the output of the following command?
$ diff -u /etc/mail/Makefile /usr/src/etc/mail/Makefile

It certainly does. The entry is laid out exactly as you have it above.
The Makefile appears to be a binary, for reasons unknown to me, but that
is besides the point. Can I just copy a new makefile over from a different
box, or am I headed in the wrong direction with this?

Does the file /usr/share/mk/bsd.own.mk exist?
If yes, does it contain a definition of SHAREMODE?
% grep SHAREMODE /usr/share/mk/bsd.own.mk
# SHAREMODE ASCII text file mode. [${NOBINMODE}]
SHAREMODE?= ${NOBINMODE}
