I'm not too enthusiastic about this.  I really can't see the use-case
for multiple milters.  It seems to me it's easier and more flexible
to do everything (greylisting, DKIM verification, etc.) in Perl.  It
gives you one place to write policy.  The "next generation" Sendmail
(MeTA1) makes it official: It only support one pmilter and says you
need a multiplexor on your end to support multiple pmilters.  [I'm not
sure that MeTA1 will ever see the light of day as production software...]

Nevertheless, if the patches are not too intrusive, I'll consider them.

Regards,

David.
