I think the README to which you refer is elsewhere?  /etc/mail/README is quite 
brief and refers to people who have sendmail_enable=NO and 
sendmail_submit_enable=NO in their configs (doesn't apply on my system, which 
says YES to both) and a paragraph on dealing with spam. 

> 	# cd /etc/mail
> 	# test -f `hostname`.mc && cp `hostname`.mc `hostname`.mc.BAK
> 	# cp freebsd.mc `hostname`.mc

OK to this point

> 	# make && make install

Then

root at BAPhD /etc/mail #make && make install
/usr/bin/m4 -
D_CF_DIR_=/usr/share/sendmail/cf/   /usr/share/sendmail/cf/m4/cf.m4 
BAPhD.gihon.org.au.mc > BAPhD.gihon.org.au.cf
*** WARNING: missing -T<TMPF> in argument of FEATURE(`access_db', hash -
o /etc/mail/access)

make: don't know how to make freebsd.submit.cf. Stop

Does that help clarify the issue?

Thanks,
Brian
