[Mimedefang] ?timeout before data read

[Net Guy]

Hi All

Seem to be stuck. I have read the FAQ and can't find anything on my
problem....seems that mimedefang times out when starting to filter
incoming emails ( see below )  I have two machines running sendmail, one
on RH7.1 which works fine, and the new one on RH9 which gives the error
message(s).  Any ideas?

RedHat 9smp box doesn't work.
RedHat 7smp box works fine.

BOTH boxes have the same versions of perl ( 5.8.2 ) and the same
defang/spamassassin glue files ( see the versions -> below )
