If you mean that disgusting hack to allow spaces as rule token delimiters
due to braindead editors that expand tabs...:-}, well then at least in AIX
PS/2 and 370 this no longer exists. I refused to carry that hack forward into
the 5.61 code, so our sendmail now conforms to normal Berkeley behavior.
Have you filed a problem report on this?? Seems to me pretty serious that you
can't send mail to a whole top level zone!
