I've read the docs on antivir-milter, installed it,

like it to show in my messages that they've been
checked for viruses & I can't seem to get it do
that. I know that the AddXHeader setting only works
in commercial version, but it says if you set the
ModifySubject to YES that it'll show up, as I
understand it, appended to the subject. I did that
& restarted it but still no notice. Any ideas/help
appreciated.

Hm, I'm using the personal version of antivir-milter, installed it just a
few days ago - and for every checked mail, it puts a header like this in:
X-AntiVirus: checked by AntiVir Milter (version: 1.1.0-7; AVE: 6.31.1.0;
VDF: 6.31.1.54; host: theatre.sax.de)

I suspect that something else is wrong. Does your sendmail delegate the
mail to antivir-milter? Is it running? It should write some message into
your /var/log/mailog, here's an example.

Startup:

ug  3 17:20:05 theatre avmilter[16541]: listening on: inet:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Aug  3 17:20:06 theatre avmilter[16541]: engine version: 6.31.1.0
Aug  3 17:20:06 theatre avmilter[16541]: vdf version: 6.31.1.54

Aug  3 17:20:40 theatre sendmail[16570]: j73FKeek016570:

Later:

Aug  3 17:20:41 theatre sm-mta[16579]: j73FKfm7016579: Milter add: header:
X-AntiVirus: checked by AntiVir Milter (version: 1.1.0-7; AVE: 6.31
.1.0; VDF: 6.31.1.54; host: theatre.sax.de)

I didn't do anything except following the installation instructions, that
means, I've put the required m4 macro string into my mc file and rebuilt
the sendmail.cf. From that on, it was working instantly like a charm

Oh yes, and with the EICAR test signature it generates an alert mail to the
postmaster and puts the file into the rejected files directory (for my
installation, /var/spool/avmilter/rejected). The only thing I had to change
was the path to sendmail, in /etc/avmilter.conf it isn't set and the
default points to /usr/lib/sendmail - on FreeBSD that's /usr/sbin/sendmail.

Regards,
        Martin

I had read where I needed to edit sendmail.mc but couldn't find
it. Then read the equivalent mc file for freebsd I needed to edit
was /etc/mail/freebsd.mc to which I added:

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(
        `antivir-milter',
        `S=unix:/var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:10m'
)dnl

Then I did a `make install' to rebuild, what I thought, was
sendmail.cf, but it's looking like I was way off beam. Here's
what's in /var/mail/maillog:

Aug  3 01:54:15 dualman avmilter[80193]: listening on:

Aug  3 01:54:19 dualman avmilter[80193]: engine version: 6.31.1.0

Aug  3 19:44:50 dualman avmilter[497]: extension blocking is disabled
Aug  3 19:44:50 dualman avmilter[497]: running in private mode

It's listening on local:/var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock, so
apparently I've botched things up. Can you clear up for me
about the sendmail.cf? I googled around & read in the fbsd
mailing list. The best I could come up with was what I stated
earlier, that the file I needed to edit was freebsd.mc
