^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ matches what's
installed on my system
Weird.
Two possibilities spring to mind:
1. yours is dated may 22, mine is may 7. maybe a new version came out which
was accidentally compiled as a.out
2. your may 22 is referring to 1995, not 1996 and you have an old package
which somehow got renamed to the current release filename.
my sendmail-8.7.5-4.deb is from my mirror, which is updated every night.
where did you get your sendmail.deb file from?
