OK, Get the RedHat 8.0 version of the sendmail 8.12.6 SOURCE RPM rpm -i that RPM, Then cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS do rpm -bb sendmail.spec You will have to have rpm-build installed and you will need many libraries and the gcc compiler and m4 and other stuff.
If it works properly you will end up with a binary version of sendmail 8.12.6 in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ Then you can "rpm -Uvh" that RPM. -Ben.
