These two statements together are very funny.  The reason why you get
the 252 response is exactly because it's not running sendmail anymore,
and it's precisely the security considerations that makes it impossible
to "do better".

While I don't think NetBSD should stop shipping sendmail as part of
the distribution, it's definitely time to consider shipping Something
Else (TM) as part of the distribution as well.
