I get an updated sendmail.cf file but the only diff is the header telling me when it was complied. Adding -d give the following (I've removed the non relevant lines): No implicit rule found for `sendmail.mc'. Finished prerequisites of target file `sendmail.mc'. No need to remake target `sendmail.mc'. Finished prerequisites of target file `sendmail.cf'. Prerequisite `sendmail.mc' is newer than target `sendmail.cf'. Must remake target `sendmail.cf'. make: Entering directory `/etc/mail' Putting child 0x05474670 (sendmail.cf) PID 10927 on the chain.

I agree - I think that the overhead that perl would impose is too high for this application.
