Has anyone fixed the bug in plain sendmail?  I know that I will soon need
to learn all about IDA, but right now I want to be able to run a better
plain sendmail.

How simple is it to go from a standard sendmail to IDA?  If it is easy enough
I might do it.  I am using Ultrix and I believe the IDA I need is the one
from UIUC?

Thanks.
