} Secondly, since you might have customized /etc/init.d/mimedefang and

} it since my (and probably everyone else's) mimedefang-filter is not so
} easily comparable with the templates furnished in the MD tarball.

     I save my mimedefang-filter file in a CVS repository.  I basically
use the methods mentioned here:
