Okay to test outbound one should use sendmail -bt -d44.4

I found the problem and it was a typo. I cut and pasted the lines needed 
in the .mc and these lines had a one letter difference between what 
works and what doesn't. For anyone seeing this thread later. the lines 
needed in your .mc are as follows if you install mimedefang as usual:

define(`MILTER', `1')dnl
define(`confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL', 6)dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', 
`S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:1m;R:1m;E:5m')dnl
dnl INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', 
`S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEdefang/mimedefang.sock')dnl

The bad line is the dnl'd one.

Thanks everyone for your patience and suggestions.
