original question:
------------- Begin Forwarded Message -------------

I am desperate. I have searched and have come up empty.
My gauntlet firewall runs smap and sendmail8.6 on solaris2.6.
I need the source code to sendmail 8.6.
It is the version that came with solaris2.6 before patches.
Anyone know of any sites that may have this old sendmail source?

------------- End Forwarded Message -------------
Thanks for all your responses.
The site I found the source code for 8.6 at was:
ftp://ftp.vse.cz/pub/network/mail/sendmail/
thanks Paul Hart.

Most people responded to see sendmail.org, but they
only have up to 8.7, 8.6 is not recommended because of
security issues, but that is what gauntlet is supporting.
I guess it is ok because sendmail is called by smapd and
is not a running daemon.
Thanks again.

 Please note this little snippet from the banner that shows up when you
cd into /pub/sendmail on ftp.sendmail.org:
250-There is NO 8.6.* patch for CA-96.20. 8.6 is not supported, not secure,
250-and should not be run on any network-connected machine.
You could download 8.7.6 and the prior patches from ftp.sendmail.org
and back out the patches ... :-}

 Did you check the FTP search engine at http://ftpsearch.lycos.com? They
have some pretty good FTP archive indexes, including sites with various
versions of sendmail 8.6.* and others. One very good site to check is:
    ftp://ftp.vse.cz/pub/network/mail/sendmail/
You might be better off upgrading to a newer version, if possible.

 What do you mean by "the source code to sendmail 8.6"?
We have the original Solaris2.6 distribution without the patches but I
don't think we have "the source code to sendmail 8.6" as I understand
it.
Please clarify, We might be able to help.
