If what you're looking for is simply the latest secure sendmail, go to
Red Hat's ftp site and grab the source rpm from the RHEL 3 tree.  You
know that all the security patches have been applied to the enterprise
released version.

[ewilts at p6000 ewilts]$ rpm -q sendmail --changelog | grep CAN
- add security patches for CAN-2003-0694 and CAN-2003-0681
[ewilts at p6000 ewilts]$ rpm -q sendmail
sendmail-8.12.11-4.RHEL3.1

lftp ftp.redhat.com:/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/3ES/en/os/SRPMS> ls -ltr sendmail*
