Peter, I don't know if you saw my reply to the sendmail on Raq2 thread 
so here it is again. Harald Kapper was nice enough to provide a patched 
sendmail binary. Being that the Raq2 and Qube2 are relatively the same 
(mips), you should be able to use his new binary on your Qube.

To use it, you'll have to have some command line experience, but he's 
provided very good instructions at the url below. Here's a quote from 
his post to cobalt-security.

as I maintain a whole bunch of raq2-boxes, I've setup a patched 8.11.6 
here
http://www.knet.at/~hk/raq2/

please do only modify your system if you know what you're doing, 
otherwise
instruct some professional to do it for you - honestly - this saves 
time + money.

it's 8.11.6 because some features faded out in 8.12 that the raq2 still
relays on (I guess I remember auto-reloadling alias-files as one of 
these).

the 8.11.6 located at the above url was originally built 2001 - so it is
hardened and tested on our raq2-setups, the patch was applied this 
morning (CET)
and the executable was recompiled then and deployed - so far our 
systems work.

this of course makes no warranty that it will work for you.
