Go get the gzipped tarball at

http://www.sendmail.org

http://www.sendmail.org/8.12.10.html

Verify the PGP sig

Build & Compile

You are now at 8.12.10

Thanks for the response. Please excuse my ignorance. How can I varify the sendmail.8.12.10.tar.gz.sig file?

There are a couple of ways to do it. If you don't have PGP installed you can verify the MD5sum as follows
MD5sum sendmail.8.12.10.tar.gz and then compare the output at Neil Rickerts site

http://www.cs.niu.edu/~rickert/sendmail/md5.html

or at

http://www.sendmail.org

You can also get the latest version of PGP (version 8.0 methinks) and then get the key you need at ftp://ftp.sendmail.org/pub/sendmail/PGPKEYS
The run the following
pgp sendmail.8.10.12.tar.gz.sig sendmail.8.10.12.tar.gz
(make sure you have the correct .sig for your tarball).This will verify the tarball is intact and voila.
