Okay okay big mistake, I'm using sendmail 8.x.

One would hope they knew exactly what they were doing. On my MUD imms
MOTD 
there is a short prayer "Holy god of coding. Please get us through this 
day, our server uncrashed, our data files unscathed." And note this is
on 
the release server which is distributed, not just the test server. So
far 
we've had a total of 8 crashes over a period of over 6 months of work,
and 
no files scrambled, but the threat looms with any developing code.

Alphas are for coders, betas for bug testers, gamma is for the end user.

Simply because Murphy's law is very much a programmers catch phrase
during 
testing.
