Howto delete TLS out of Debian-sendmail?

[Martin Mewes <mm@mewes.tv>]

Hi all,

apparantly it seems that I have activated TLS for my 
debian-sarge-sendmail which causes some mailservers either to not 
accepts eMails from my server or other mailservers with TLS not to 
connect to my server anymore for some reason.

I have read through the m4-files on the computer and found

	/usr/share/sendmail/cf/debian/autoconf.m4

where I changed

	define(`sm_enable_tls',         `yes')dnl

to

	define(`sm_enable_tls',         `no')dnl

Then I did a "sendmailconfig", but TLS is still included in sendmail.cf.

I have read through

	/usr/share/sendmail/update_tls

and found

	To enable sendmail to use STARTTLS, you need to:
	1) Add this line to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and optionally 
	to /etc/mail/submit.mc:
	include(\`/etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4')dnl
	2) Run sendmailconfig
	3) Restart sendmail

but the mentioned files do not include that line.

In the end I totally remove

	define(`sm_enable_tls',         `no')dnl

from the autoconf.m4 to no success with sendmailconfig.

Then I tried to remove OpenSSL and a rm -rfv /etc/mail/tls but 
sendmailconfig only moans about the missing OpenSSL and asks me whether 
to create certificates or not. I say "no" but TLS is still online.

In the end I tried 

	dpkg-reconfigure sendmail

and

	dpkg-reconfigure -plow sendmail

but nothing happens.

Please someone point me into the right direction, because I do not get 
any messages from my sourceforge-projects anymore.


bis dahin / kind regards
