If you are using Ease, you will find that Version 2.0 of Ease and cfc
is less than perfect. I know because I fixed about 100 bugs.

I have sent the patches to the current maintainer, Arnold Robbins,
( arnold@emory.edu). I have also sent out the patches to a dozen people.
You can get the patches from me if you want.

If you are using sendmail on a Sun, Ultrix or any other BSD-based
machine, you REALLY REALLY want Ease 2.1 (Beta).

Ease and CFC 2.1 support 100% of the BSD, Ultrix 3.0, and SunOS 4.0
versions of sendmail.

That is, you can translate the vendor supplied .cf file into ease,
and compile the ease file into sendmail, and THEY WILL BE IDENTICAL!
(With some minor cosmetic differences.)

If you are using the IDA sendmail, you still want Ease 2.1 (Beta).
However, Ease 2.1 is not 100% perfect. But it has the ASM("...") command,
so you can work-around the problem.

I tested this with several different sendmail.cf files.
It only handled about 99% of the Ida sendmail. :-(

I now routinely convert a sendmail file into ease, edit it, and convert
it back into the .cf file with no worries.
