[cobalt-users] SolarSpeed Sendmail uninstall problem.

The problem does not seem to be with Michael's package. If you install
the Sun package from the command line, you will see the error is with
duplicate entries in the virtusertable. The duplicates cause the Sun
package to error out half way through and leave an sendmail.cf that
does not support POP before SMTP.

To quote Michael's previous post on this:
>>Here are the commands for a manual rehash of these files (as root!):

>>     /usr/bin/makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable <
/etc/mail/virtusertable
>>    /usr/bin/makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access

>>    If the rehash of any of those two files returns an error, then
resolve these
>>    errors first by editing or deleting the lines which makemap
reported. Once
>>    makemap runs through without errors you can go ahead and install
16402 and
>>   16429.


To get a good sendmail.cf (that has the pop before smtp in it) I
copied in one from a working server of mine; I put it at:
