Very likely.  The instructions aren't particularly clear.

Here's the relevant lines from my sendmail.mc:

dnl Milters - put in desired calling order
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/milter.sock, F=T, T=S:4m;R:
4m')dnl
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=local:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock,
F=T, T=S:4m;R:4m;E:15m')dnl

Note that I do NOT have a line like
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clamav')dnl
because that would tell sendmail only to use the clamav mail filter.

The correct line would be:
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clamav,mimedefang')dnl

but that's the default anyway when using INPUT_MAIL_FILTER (all filters in the order they're defined) so I don't bother to put it in.
