Sendmail 8.11.3

Sendmail, Inc. and the Sendmail Consortium announce the release of sendmail 8.11.3. This is a maintenance release which contains bug fixes for problems found after 8.11.2 was released. Systems which use buffered file I/O (BSD Torek systems) were not properly fsync()'ing the data (df) file. Although there is little chance of data loss, this is an important fix.

See the RELEASE_NOTES for complete details and other changes.
