Thank you very much for timely response.  It is greatly appreciated!!
Again I am a FreeBSD noob so this might be screamingly obvious to fix ->
Per "=> Which Mimedefang version are you using ?
You'd better use the FreeBSD port Andrey has done :
http://www.freshports.org/mail/mimedefang/"

Ok I cd to /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang and type make
It then tries to download a bunch of dependicies, which is fine except
all the versions are wrong!  I manually downloaded the files it wanted
and installed them.  However I installed MailTools-1.47 and it wants
MailTools-1.44 ;(  I deleted the contents of /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang
and ftped the files from the above link hoping to resync with the most
current version, but again the same problem.

make file->

 mimedefang-2.15 depends on file:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/MIME/Tools.pm - not found
===>    Verifying install for
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/MIME/Tools.pm in
/usr/ports/mail/p5-MIME-Tools
===>  Extracting for p5-MIME-Tools-5.411a
>> Checksum OK for MIME-tools-5.411a.tar.gz.
===>   p5-MIME-Tools-5.411a depends on file:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Mail/Header.pm - not found
===>    Verifying install for
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Mail/Header.pm in
/usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-Tools

>> Attempting to fetch from
ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN/modules/by-module/Mail/.
fetch: MailTools-1.44.tar.gz: Undefined error: 0

at this point we are on a wild goose chase for 1.44 when I have already
installed 1.47 on the system!

=> The sendmail provided with FreeBSD 4.6 is compiled with MILTER 
support. You can also use the allway updated sendmail port :

=> Really ? I will check that.
