First things first, im a novice. While trying to implement your mail server filtering solution to a Freebsd 5.2 machine an error message: 554 5.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 1653: Xmimedefang: unknown filter equate \= WARNING: Xmimedefang: local socket name /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock missing while trying to start sendmail. any help would be appreciated. thanks |

error while starting sendmail

I had to remove the / from the entry in the sendmail.cf
MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=local:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `mimedefang')dnl
You should only have 2 lines of code not 3
For your mimedefang... reread the page you will notice you have to modify one of the conf files to tell it to point and look for the correct mimedefang.sock
