Nope, naw never.  The RaQ 1,2,3,4 are all EOL.  This is the output from a
RaQ 4

214-2.0.0 This is sendmail version 8.10.2
214-2.0.0 Topics:
214-2.0.0       HELO    EHLO    MAIL    RCPT    DATA
214-2.0.0       RSET    NOOP    QUIT    HELP    VRFY
214-2.0.0       EXPN    VERB    ETRN    DSN     AUTH

I think most agree.  Would you mind sending some of that information over
this way, either online or offline?

The last update was: August 27, 2002 (RaQ 2), I personally doubt that they
will
be updating it anymore, but hell .. I could be wrong.
