I came back from lunch today to hear people saying they can't send mail. Looking in the /var/log/maillog, I see two Bad Things(tm)
#1:
Jan 26 13:42:12 meow sendmail[8791]: i0QLgCFl008791: Milter (mimedefang): local socket name /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock unsafe
In the archives, I see that the generic response is "make sure /var & /var/spool are owned by root and not group/world writable. Already been there and checked that.
#2: (which I find no reference to in the Archives): Milter (mimedefang): write(Q) returned -1, expected 5: Broken pipe
Mimedefang.sock does not exist, I assume because mimedefang isn't really running. I further assume that is the reason for #2.
MimeDefang is 2.39. Sendmail is 8.12.11. SA is 2.63. I'm using Sophos for antivirus.
I'm now going to recompile sendmail.cf from an .mc file with no milter line, just so I can get mail flowing again. This system has been up for a week, working flawlessly. It just replaced a system that was in use for over one year, and in the end was MD 2.37/SM 8.12.10/SA 2.60/Sophos.
Any help most certainly be appreciated.
