My reading of this is that if you include the notice in your source,
you are free to distribute it, although people who want to change it
might need to get a new license.
Right. And people who want to redistribute it, too.
The first sentence quoted above says that the "you" (the party who
wishes to redistribute) does not receive a SenderID license from "us"
(the party who has one). The second says that to redistribute, "you"
must contact Microsoft.
So even if Sendmail has a license, that doesn't grant Sourceforge a
right to redistribute.
Maybe I'm wrong. If I am, I think it's an understandable error and
clarifications are urgently needed.
