You have to keep in mind that milters (including MIMEDefang) are intimately connected with sendmail and that sendmail is a Mail TRANSFER Agent. In other words, all sendmail does is move mail from one place to another. As far as sendmail is concerned every piece of mail comes into it, gets processed, and goes out again. There is no "inbound" or "outbound". These are distinctions that are attached to messages by system admins. There is no easy way for sendmail to distinguish one from the other since the rules for distinguishing them are site specific. }-- End of excerpt from Rolf _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.roaringpenguin.com MIMEDefang mailing list MIMEDefang@lists.roaringpenguin.com http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
