i like 8.10 very also. the filter stuff is a little young though...
you have to build sendmail (or rebuild, if you've already built it)
with _FFR_MILTER defined, among other things...like the usual dearth
of documentation for new features that aren't really "released". :)
it also requires threads. not something i've got very much practical
experience with...
