240060 - Stop yelling at people about the minimum sendmail version

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Installation & Upgrading, defect)

Description

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

continued from bug 239885...

Let's get rid of this warning altogether, not just for Windows folks.  It's
annoying, and confuses people into thinking it's complaining that their sendmail
version isn't new enough, which in fact, it prints it regardless because it has
no way to know.  I haven't seen a machine with sendmail older than 8.9 on it in
years, so this isn't worth throwing in everyone's face anymore.  The 8.7 prereq
is a matter for the documentation now.

Justdave,

Sounds good to me. Is this a blocker for 2.18?

Comment 2

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

Sure.

This should be an easy docs fix, just make mention of it in the prereqs section.

Same as for 2.18, but not sure of the protocol, and better to be safe than
sorry.

Doc changes for 2.18

The first -/+ changeset includes a very large line that could fit very well on
two lines :-) (we try to keep those at 80 chars maximum)
