[Mimedefang] mimedefang doesn't appear to be running...

hi all,

here's more data.  hopefully this might shed some light.  

1) i built just sendmail, sans MILTER, and that works fine.  all relaying,
   exchanging, etc, etc is as expected.

2) i rebuild just sendmail, adding the site.config.m4 to get the 
   -DMILTER support as expected.  (yes, i "sh Build -c".)  i insert
   into the sendmail.mc the necessary lines to invoke the mimedefang
   milter.  but nothing seems to be running mimedefang... ?

can anyone shed any light?  offer suggestions?  other details that
would help?  i'm running the generic, unmodified mimedefang-example
(copied over, of course), and have adjusted sendmail's queue timeout
and such.
