The problem may be that Red Hat's killproc() function expects to find
a pid file in /var/run; MIMEDefang keeps its pid files in
/var/spool/MIMEDefang.

I do not use the Red Hat init script on my Red Hat box.  Here
is an edited version of the init script I use for our commercial CanIt
product; it seems to work on all the UNIXes we support.  Be sure
to create /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang and set all the variables
(see redhat/mimedefang-sysconfig in the distribution.)

If it works well for you, I'll make it the "official" init script.

Regards,

David.
