Sorry, but I was more concentrated on getting my system running again ASAP.

I restored the sendmail.mc and sendmail.cf  files from my backup and
was surprised to find them unchanged post-patch.  It seems the patch
didn't actually change these config files (contrary to reports
hereabouts).

Then I looked into the virtusertable.  I did a new makemap of the
virtusertable.db and was surprised when the catch-all addresses
started to work again.

I am left wondering if this sendmail patch actually wiped virtusertable.db.

But why would it do that?

Regards, Ralph.
