[Mimedefang] Where do I find the information to fix this error?

When I restart sendmail, I see this error in /var/log/maillog and mimedefang fails.  I also see a refused error on the sending end for email coming from outside.

I get this after uninstalling mimedefang, restarting system, recompiling sendmail 8.12.10 to ensure that milter support added and following the how to process at mimedefang.org step by step.  I suspect a permission error but don't know where to look.

/var/log/maillog:
