220 somehost ESMTP Sendmail 8.8.5/8.8.3; Fri, 9 May 1997 21:57:10 -0700 (MST)
The 8.8.5/8.8.3 is sendmail version 8.8.5, using config file version 8.8.3.
Also I am advised to upgrade to sendmail 8.8.5 (ftp.cs.berkeley.edu) and BIND
4.9.5 (ftp.vix.com). It seems that most of you are running these, so I
probably won't end up frustrated because things don't work. (thanks to those
of you, who are offering help, i'll ask for it only when needed...)

Original question:
I'm in the preparing-proces of altering our sendmail to accept (and forward)
email from guest domains on our Host to their other email accounts (we are a
small content provider beside other regular business).
The host is a Netra i5 running solaris 2.4 (with the latest update cluster).
When I use /usr/lib/sendmail -bt -d35.12, it reports sendmail version 8.6,
this is the same as before the cluster update. On a second Sparc 4 running
Solaris 2.5 (with the latest cluster update), also the version seems to be
8.6.
I wonder, is this version comming from the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf or isn't Sun
upgrading to higher versions. I think I need a higher version to create a sort
of virtual alias.db file...?
