[Mimedefang] Another Sendmail security problem: Upgrade to 8.12.9

I'm inclined to agree. I appreciate the fact that Sendmail is so
scrutinized because it ensures that I have a secure setup. I don't use
some of the smaller email systems because they don't get the attention
Sendmail gets and could contain worse vulnerabilities.

I'm afraid that Postfix and Qmail will all have vulnerabilities exposed 
sooner or later.  It's a mater of course, Sendmail has a larger breadth 
of use and has been around for a lot longer time.
