The FreeBSD port has been updated to version 2.42 :
http://www.freshports.org/mail/mimedefang/
However I don't think it will solve your problems.
I guess you will have to add some extra code in mimedefang.pl
to debug it : calls to syslog to list the ownership of files...
Someone mentioned MIME::Parser problems : there is a mkdir call in
Parser/Filer.pm :
# grep mkdir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/MIME/Parser/Filer.pm
mkdir $self->output_dir, 0700 or
die "mkdir ".$self->output_dir.": $!\n";
