Here is the printed version:
If you install openssl in directories [...]
It should be:
If you install sasl in directories [...]
Because the chapter talk abour SASL library and not OpenSSL.

1st paragraph under 17.8.13 FEATURE(conncontrol) |
ClientRate:192.168.23.45 10
should read
ClientConn:192.168.23.45 10

2nd paragraph |
In the §17.8.13 FEATURE(conncontrol) you use the same example as in §17.8.43 FEATURE(ratecontrol).
It says
ClientRate:192.168.23.45 2
ClientRate:127.0.0.1 0
ClientRate: 10
ClientRate:10.5.2 2
I think it should say
ClientConn:192.168.23.45 2
ClientConn:127.0.0.1 0
ClientConn: 10
ClientConn:10.5.2 2
otherwise I cannot understand the difference between the examples in §17.8.13 and §17.8.43

table 23-29, section 23.7.27 |
The table 23-27 entry reads "-f (section)23.3.4 Perform a case-insensitive search" which seems to imply that all case is translated to lower-case for comparison. This differs from the section 23.3.4 verbiage which reads:
"23.3.4. -f
Preserve case V8.1 and later
Ordinarily, sendmail will normalize a key to lowercase before looking it up in a database. If the keys in the database are case-sensitive ("TEX" is considered different from "tex," for example), the -f database switch should be used to prevent this normalization. Note that if the -f switch is omitted (the default), the database must have been created with all lowercase keys (also the default).
Also note that when the -f switch is used with the regex database-map type, it causes the regular expression match to be made in a case-insensitive manner."
IMHO this seems to be the exact opposite of the Description supplied in Table 23-27.
This problem was discovered in the 3rd Edition on pages 916 and 868 respectively, the checked in 4th Edition on-line. At worst it is incorrect, at best misleading.
