I can't find the conversations on www.flora.org, but in any case, the
sendmail EXE file in the Win32 version I use has this logo:

=================================================================
$ ./sendmail -v
Welcome to sendmail/NT, a mailer stub for Windows/NT and Windows/95.
(c) Nigel R. Ellis <address@hidden> 1994 - 1995.

This version built on Jun  5 1995 at 14:56:11
=================================================================

I don't see anything about shareware in the EXE.  The SENDMAIL.TXT file
says this:

This Win32 sendmail comes from the Tin archive at
ftp://ftp.wa.com/pub/users/ntnews/tin/utils
