I loaded F8 onto my old mail server computer and started to
reassemble it. But I'm getting a strange message from sendmail and a
selinux avc to go with it. I do not have a .forward file and I have
an almost identical system running that doesn't have one either and
doesn't give any errors. I don't know if this is a sendmail problem
or a selinux problem. The mail comes and goes OK. Any ideas?
Thanks,

This looks to be sendmail checking to see if you have a .forward file
and getting an SELinux denial when it does so. Since you don't have one,
the failure doesn't have an impact.
I don't know where the unconfined_home_dir_t comes from though. I'm
running F8 with targeted policy and the home directories are
user_home_dir_t rather than unconfined_home_dir_t.
What's the output of:
# sestatus
and:
# ls -lZ /home/knute
and:
# restorecon -Fv /home/knute
