sendmail has been updated to 8.15.2. Starting with FreeBSD 11.0
and sendmail 8.15, sendmail uses uncompressed IPv6 addresses by
default, i.e., they will not contain "::". For example, instead
of ::1, it will be 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1. This permits a zero subnet
to have a more specific match, such as different map entries for
IPv6:0:0 vs IPv6:0. This change requires that configuration
data (including maps, files, classes, custom ruleset, etc.) must
use the same format, so make certain such configuration data is
upgrading. As a very simple check search for patterns like
'IPv6:[0-9a-fA-F:]*::' and 'IPv6::'. To return to the old
behavior, set the m4 option confUSE_COMPRESSED_IPV6_ADDRESSES or
the cf option UseCompressedIPv6Addresses.
