You might notice I ommited one.  That one was a piece of spam that was 
sent 6 times in about a minute and 20 seconds.  Each time it had a warning 
like this one

Jun  8 17:18:45 bubba sm-mta[20150]: h58MII36020150: Warning: truncated 
header 'To' before check with 'CheckTo' len=272 
max=255

Finally on the 7th try MD did this:

Jun  8 17:20:03 bubba sm-mta[20150]: h58MII3E020150: 
milter_read(mimedefang): cmd read returned 0, expecting 5
Jun  8 17:20:03 bubba sm-mta[20150]: h58MII3E020150: Milter (mimedefang): 
to error state
Jun  8 17:20:03 bubba sm-mta[20150]: h58MII3E020150: Milter: data, 
reject=451 4.7.1 Please try again later

and started temp failing the message (which it did 5 more times).  This is 
weird.

I'm not literally restarting Sendmail and MIMEDefang from cron every 5 
minutes.  Any ideas?

Thanks
 Justin
