This is an old, old problem, since "$"'s occur in BITNET mail addresses
all the time.  Eric Allman, sendmail's author, promised a fix a long
time ago (his solution was to turn $'s into ^A's when reading the .cf
file) but I never heard anything more about it.  Does anyone know when
the latest version of sendmail is going to be distributed?
