Unless typing 'yum update' to pick up fixes that have been needed less often than in the Linux kernel for the last few years is a problem for you... No one edits sendmail.cf directly anymore and milter has been stable for about as long as postfix has existed at all. Postfix still doesn't have a way to let you hook user defined scanners running under a different uid to run in realtime during the smtp conversation, does it? MimeDefang lets you do anything you can describe in perl and return the response through the milter interface for various operations before the mail has been acknowledged as accepted. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
