Hi,

I must confess that its a really long time since I've poked around
perdition-pbs. I think that the entries above are correct and the
non-ascii are the expiry timestamps stored as binary.

You can get an idea of how perdition-pbs reads what is in the database
by running 'perdition-pbs --mode list'. Unfortunately that doesn't help
your problem which seems to relate to how sendmail is reading what
is in the database.

Are you using the HACK('popauth') ruleset for sendmail? I have not tested
it, and I'm not sure if its out of date, but it looks like it should work.
