		  not already there

		  re-installation of sendmail)

		  instead of just the .tar file
		- Added chmod 640 /etc/mail/aliases /etc/mail/statistics
		  to the permissions fixer-upper part
		- Updated SSL certs part to refer to the openssl howto,
		  added part to clean up old certs if CA.pl was run before
		- Added a persistent queue runner to the MSP usage part
		- You don't have to patch openssl's misc/CA.pl any more;

Dec 4, 2002	- Added patch that removes ability of bogus dns data to
		  circumvent access restrictions for IPs via check_relay
		- Updated the gpg verification to verify the output of zcat
		  instead of untarring it (which changes the md5sum when
		  it's re-gzipped)

		  config files, removal of old source dirs (watch it
		  carefully - let me know if you have trouble with it!)

Aug 5, 2002	- First entry
		- Added md5 and gpg verification
