Hello David,

Could not find any recognized virus scanner... do not use

Found Mail::SpamAssassin.  You may use spam_assassin_is_spam()

Your version of MIME-Tools does not have the Roaring Penguin
patch applied.

then I run make:
====
gcc -g -O2 -pthread -DPERL_PATH=\"/usr/bin/perl\"  -DMIMEDEFANG_PL=\"/usr/local/MIMEDefang/bin/mimedefang.pl\"  -DRM=\"/bin/rm\"  -DVERSION=\"2.8\"  -DSPOOLDIR=\"/var/spool/MIMEDefang\"  -DQDIR=\"/var/spool/MIMEDefang\" -I/usr/local/include -c -o mimedefang.o mimedefang.c
gcc -g -O2 -pthread -o mimedefang mimedefang.o /usr/local/lib/libmilter.a /usr/local/lib/libsmutil.a  -lsm
*** Error code 1

Stop in /home/andrey/src/mimedefang-2.8.
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lsm
====

but when I just edited Makefile and change -lsm to
/usr/local/lib/libsm.a  -  it  compiles  without any problems and work
great.

Whould be some changes in configure to fix this little issue?
