[Mimedefang] Testing question

Hello,

I am currently trying to test as much as I can various scenarios. First my 
setup consits of MIMEDefang 2.28, Sendmail 8.12.7 and Cyrus 2.1.11 on 
Solaris 9.

What I am trying to do now is to send a mail which has attached to it the 
eicar.com test virus. I've got this mail saved in a file and I am currently 
try this directly on the mail server itself:

/usr/bin/mail < /home/me/my-virus-mail.txt

What I can then see in my maillog file is the following:

Jan 18 16:20:37 mail sendmail[1292]: [ID 801593 mail.info] h0IFKar1001292: 
from=<me at domain.tld>, size=1796, class=0, nrcpts=1, 
msgid=<003d01c2bf02$66899e50$7a0aa8c0 at betwo>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, 
relay=localhost [127.0.0.1]

Jan 18 16:20:37 mail medefang-multiplexor: [ID 731849 mail.info] stats 
1042903237.383 StartFilter slave=0 nslaves=2 nbusy=1

Jan 18 16:20:37 mail sendmail[1292]: [ID 801593 mail.info] h0IFKar1001292: 
Milter: data, reject=554 5.7.1 Virus Eicar-Test-Signature found in mail - 
rejected

Jan 18 16:20:38 mail sendmail[1292]: [ID 801593 mail.info] h0IFKar1001292: 
to=<someoneelse at anotherdomain.tld>, delay=00:00:01, pri=30623, stat=Virus 
Eicar-Test-Signature found in mail - rejected

Jan 18 16:20:38 mail sendmail[1291]: [ID 801593 mail.info] h0IFKaVL001291: 
to=someoneehlse at anotherdomain.tld, ctladdr=me (200/200), delay=00:00:02, 
xdelay=00:00:02, mailer=relay, pri=30505, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], 
dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable

The last log line seems suspect to me, what does this "Service unavailable" 
line mean ?

Another strange issue is that postmaster didn't receive any notification 
mail of any quarantine, if I send this mail through a normal client such as 
outlook from another client then it works all fine.

Any ideas ?

Many thanks

Regards
