I have been noticing an increase in spam lately and after the ProFTP config
file changes, I decided to check sendmail.mc.  I appears sometime around
April 25, a change was made to push my original sendmail.mc into
sendmail.mc.bxold, negating the RBLs I had added to the file.  I understand
the need for this, but wondered if there are any configuration options that
aren't available through the admserv GUI and if it was ok to add them to the
new sendmail.mc?

Such as:

FEATURE(`delay_checks', `friend')dnl
FEATURE(`conncontrol', `nodelay', `terminate')dnl
FEATURE(`ratecontrol', `nodelay', `terminate')dnl
FEATURE(`greet_pause', `1000')dnl
define(`confMAX_MESSAGE_SIZE',0)dnl
define(`confBAD_RCPT_THROTTLE', `3')
define(`confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE', `3')
