[NTLUG:Discuss] Trouble locating updated Sendmail package for Redhat.

[Richard Geoffrion]

unfortunately RH 7.x breaks a commercial document imaging product.  Until
the document imaging product is upgraded, RH 6.2 must be used.

A bit of EVIL catch 22.

Thanks for the Sendmail.rpm.  How did you find it?  Where should I have
gone?  I hunted around on redhat.com but I couldn't find anything.  I even
looked in the 7.x area.
