The whole "only trusted users can call sendmail -f" is a bit overly paranoid
imho. Why not do as sendmail does, issue an authwarning and insert an
x-authenticated-warning: header if the user calling sendmail -f is not a
trusted user?
Especially useful in cases where exim is quite commonly used - virtual
hosting setups, and on home boxes / other single user boxes.
