Sendmail in the base system

[antenneX]

Am running FBSD-4.10p2 with sendmail-8.12.11 in the base system.

If I wanted to recompile sendmail with a later DB like Berkley DB-4.2,
since its in the base system, what would be the best way of doing this?

- Rebuild make/install world without sendmail, then install sendmail
from the ports with my choice of DB?

- or, just install sendmail-8.13.x from ports with the new DB and then
have the system point to the new sendmail???

Best regards,
