What worked for me under Ubuntu 10.04 was to let Mimedefang run as the
postfix user (change MX_USER=postfix in /etc/default/mimedefang or
/etc/init.d/mimedefang) and to change ownership on /var/spool/MIMEDefang
to postfix.defang and mode 750. I read somewhere that you should also
not run postfix in a chroot jail, i.e edit /etc/postfix/master.cf and
somewhere near the top, make it look as follows: (note the n in the
chroot column)
# ==========================================================================
# service type private unpriv chroot wakeup maxproc command + args
# (yes) (yes) (yes) (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
My main.cf then just contained the extra:
smtpd_milters = unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock
although I guess adding the
milter_default_action = tempfail
milter_protocol = 6
Would be even better (I've never checked what happens if I make a typo
in /etc/mail/mimedefang)
Hope that helps ?

there is to change to socket also im mimedefang anywere
You're already pretty much done on the Postfix side.
just work with the centos 6 rpm for postfix 2.6.6 or is there anything
to patch?
is the defang user a problem to change to postfix or ok.
You should be able to run MD as defang under most configurations -
there are really only a couple of rare cases where it *won't* work.
For CentOS, you should be able to then edit /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang
(assuming you installed it from a .rpm as well) to set the appropriate
options to get it to listen on a TCP socket instead of UNIX socket.
Look for a (probably commented) line that sets the SOCKET variable,
and put inet:<port>@<ip> for the value.
<ip> should probably be 127.0.0.1 unless you want to run a cluster of
mail systems against a set of load-balanced MD servers. <port> can be
any handy unused port.
