[Mimedefang] Re: Spamassassin and white-lists

[David Erickson]

I noticed that the version i began with for Mimedefang and spamassassin
wasn't the current one so I upgraded to the latest stuff just before my
implementation.  Thanks for your helpful information.. And now i see there
is a new mimedefang to test and upgrade to ;-)
