[Mimedefang] Simple feature request

This really is a simple one. :)

For one of the mail gateways I administer, it does relaying for another
server that can't be connected to via the normal SMTP port 25/TCP.
Instead that server is contacted via an alternate TCP port.  To
insure only legimate recipients get relayed to this remote server I made
a copy of the function md_check_against_smtp_server() from mimedefang.pl
and called it my_check_against_smtp_server().  To make this work, I set it up
to accept an addtional argument for port number and then changed the call
to IO::Socket::INET->new to use that new argument/variable.

Could the capability to optionally specify a port number in
md_check_against_smtp_server() be included in a future version of
MIMEDefang?

Thanks.
