Surely a box kept up to date would not have those security issues. Am I
missing something?
Only if RH is:-)
It's still the default MTA installed by Red Hat's installer.
I don't use it myself, but that's to do with ease of configuration and
the fact I was using Debian for a while, where sendmail was broken and
unlikely to get fixed any time soon, so I switched to postfix which I like.
sendmail has an enormous share of the "market" - it can't be _that_ bad.
