This is an old, old problem, since "$"'s occur in BITNET mail addresses all the time. Eric Allman, sendmail's author, promised a fix a long time ago (his solution was to turn $'s into ^A's when reading the .cf file) but I never heard anything more about it. Does anyone know when the latest version of sendmail is going to be distributed? Chris
