Hi,
I've gone through the MIMEDefang HOWTO with the help of some other sources
on the net to install my IRIX 6.5.22f with sendmail 8.13.1, Spam Assassin,
ClamAV, and finally MIMEDefang 2.44.
When I ran the mimedefang init-script(after having copied it to /etc/init.d,
I got the following:
*********************************************************************
thoughtful 691# /etc/init.d/mimedefang start

/usr/local/bin/mimedefang.pl -server
******************************************************************
So mimedefang itself won't run. The more revealing line above seems to be
/usr/local/bin/mimedefang: smfi_register failed
/var/adm/syslog tells me that:

*****************************************************************
The "smfi_register: version mismatch application" error looks scary. Has
anyone any idea why this comes about?
I couldn't get very far with google...
Any idea/direction would be most helpful.
Thank you!
Gilad.
