Hi,

Sigh, no I think it's probably me that doesn't understand. Mimedefang is runing as a milter under Sendmail. I don't start mimedefang using /etc/init.d/mimedefang, I start it using /etc/init.d/sendmail. This script starts Sendmail and Mimedefang. When I installed mimedefang 2.48 I modified /etc/init.d/sendmail as my directions said to do. In /etc/init.d/sendmail there is:

# Start daemons.

       /etc/init.d/mimedefang start

Are you saying I should modify that to read /etc/init.d/mimedefang -U defang start
??


Thanks,

Lisa Casey

I think the logs say it all right there...

You need to start mimedefang with -U defang. Am I not understanding something about your install?

Did you edit rc.mimedefang?

in that file there's a line that says:

# Run the multiplexor and filters as this user, not root.  RECOMMENDED
MX_USER=defang


make sure that's set correctly..
