One would be safer to assume it is vulnerable until it's proven safe...  

Eric did say "probably all sendmail's, including most vendor's version 5 
derived ones" - IDA is a version 5 sendmail derivative too.

If it was fixed in IDA first, the chances are that somebody going through 
the RCS logs would have picked this up ages ago..
