Solaris, by default, doesn't use a maillog file. Messages from sendmail show up in /var/log/syslog . I would start there unless you have modified your /etc/syslog.conf file.

1) How to check that MIMEDEFANG is working properly ?

The ultimate proof is to send test messages through the filter. Send a
message with a .exe file attached to test the executable blocking. Send a
message with the GTUBE string to test that it is calling SpamAssissin


2) What are the important file to look for ?

The most important is the mail log file. If you're using antivirus, make
sure it is updating.
