Thanks,

Glad to here you got it straighted out.
I do have the original spec file for FC1 modified to work with 8.13.5 
some time back... Of course, I added a patch now for the latest updates, 
got back and saw all the commotion about sendmail, which I use 
significantly.  And didn't see any of the reported problems with my 
system.  I just wanted to be sure I couldn't be of some help now that 
I'm back.
