I'm trying to establish why I'm currently having a problem with my sendmail/mimedefang setup after upgrading from 5.2 to 5.4. I found these files in /etc/mail: .mc .cf .submit.mc .submit.cf I thought this looked curious, albeit (to me) meaningless: # diff -u freebsd.submit.cf .submit.cf --- freebsd.submit.cf Sun May 29 12:51:09 2005 +++ .submit.cf Sun May 29 12:52:08 2005 @@ -17,9 +17,9 @@ ##### ##### SENDMAIL CONFIGURATION FILE ##### -##### built by root@ on Sun May 29 12:49:16 CST 2005 -##### in /var/tmp/temproot/usr/obj/usr/src/etc/sendmail -##### using /usr/src/etc/sendmail/../../contrib/sendmail/cf/ as configuration include directory +##### built by root@ on Sun May 29 12:52:08 CST 2005 +##### in /etc/mail +##### using /usr/share/sendmail/cf/ as configuration include directory ##### ###################################################################### ##### Yes, there was a hiccup when running mergemaster. Unfortunately I don't recall exactly what happened, except there was some finger trouble on my part and I ran mergemaster a second time (which appeared to do what I expected it to do, i.e. present me with a few files which I hadn't correctly manipulated in the first attempt). So I've removed and renamed the files in /etc/mail as I thought most appropriate, run make and restarted sendmail but I still can't get mimedefang operational - everything I've checked seems to be as it should be, e.g.: mailnull 44333 0.0 0.5 2684 1224 ??

I 4:34AM 0:05.30 /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/mimedefang.pl -server and I can't find any errors in /var/log/messages or /var/log/maillog. However neither spamassassin or clamav are being called. How might I verify that the correct, updated files have ended up in /etc/mail? Anything else I can verify re mimedefang? Thanks, Wayne
