That is not true. The sendmail init script will rebuild the sendmail.cf
when a change in the sendmail.mc is detected when the init script is
run. You can rebuild the sendmail.cf, the submit.cf and other hashed map
files by running "make -C /etc/mail" manually. A "service sendmail
restart" will that too, if a change is made in the source files (the .mc
or plain text file for the dbs).
