Turn your logging up in sendmail to 16.
define(`confLOG_LEVEL',`16')dnl
Enable action change header in mimedefang-filter.
action_change_header("X-Spam-Score", "$hits $names");

I use debian packages for my installation, none compiled from source.
My configuration works good...
Go back to the default filter.
Use clamscan instead of clamdscan.
Check your permissions on /var/spool/Mimedefang and *.sock
Make sure you have a user and group defang.
when restarting mimedefang add in a 3 second delay from the stop to start,
like such:
/etc/init.d/sendmail stop;
/etc/init.d/mimedefang stop;
sleep 3;
/etc/init.d/mimedefang stop;
sleep 1;
/etc/init.d/sendmail start;
