   Sendmail does that whenever a non-trusted user tries to change the
envelope sender.  To get around it, do two things:  One, put

	FEATURE(`use_ct_file')

in the .mc file that you build your config file from.  Then, create
/etc/mail/trusted-users and add the MIMEDefang user (defang) to the file.
The warnings should go away.

   HTH...
