Once upon a time (so long ago, one could still find jim rees
out at chelmsford) ... -:)

anyway, that frozen-config file error kind of comes and goes.

the last time around (some time ago) it turned out to be
because of some wrinkle in the c compiler or ld.  Seriously.

some .cf files work, some don't.  for example, i just tried
one here, and got this for an error when i tried to run
with the frozen config:

% /usr/lib/sendmail -v paul
No local mailer defined
No prog mailer defined

The unfrozen one works fine.

This has been found and fixed before, but for the life of me
I can't remember what it was.  Maybe I can look for an old
tape that would have a fixed version of sendmail on it for apollos.
