in examples, there was not a file called init-script. There is an init-script.in which is what I copied over.
Well, that's your problem -- that won't work. When you ran ./configure, it should have created init-script from init-script.in. Did you run ./configure?

Yes, but I reran ./configure (and read the instructions that came with MD) and now MIMEDefang starts up when I start Sendmail.
Here's another problem (?) though: I added this to my sendmail.mc:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:5m;R:5m')
and regenerated sendmail.cf from sendmail.mc. But when I look at sendmail.cf, I don't see anything referring to MIMEDefang, or MAIL_FILTER at all. I'm wondering if this got into my sendmail.cf at all. How do I tell if MIMEDefang is working?
Grep for 'mimedefang' (all lowercase). You should see a line starting with 'O' and a line starting with 'X'.
You can tell that MIMEDefang is working if your machine start to feel slow ;-)
Lines like the one bellow in Sendmail log files is good indication that it is running:
Milter add: header: X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.xx on 1.2.3.4
Good idea when you are still building mimedefang-filter file is to have it log everything it does. My personal preference is using md_syslog() for this (not md_graphdefang_log()).
