Nothing really to worry about. Preserve your configuration files in case there is an incompatability.

As a precaution back up /etc/mail and sendmail.cf

If you are using .mc macro files, you may need to check and see if any of your statements fail to work. I am aware of nothing but improvement in this release of sendmail.

Hi

I dont think there will be any issue.

HP-UX 11.11 comes with sendmail version 8.9.3.1.
HP-UX 11.00 and 10.20 come with sendmail version 8.7.1.1.

Use what command to determine what version of sendmail is installed:

#what /usr/sbin/sendmail | grep version
/usr/sbin/sendmail:
