Well thank , thanks John - the problem was not it - it certaily had nothing
to do with those permissions.
Well i m configuring this on linux redhat9 , on an Intel based machine (
i386) , with sendmail 8.13.4, mimedefang 2.52 and with clamav 0.85.1
Being a NewBee i m sorry to post it again . Coz i really needed the solution
and Mark Penkower gave me it.


The actual problem was - due to this

my sendmail.mc had
    INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang',
    'S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:6m;R:6m;E:15m')

and when i was building the sendmail.cf file it was there like this
sendmail.cf
    Xmimedefang, S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock,

where as it should be some thing like this

    Xmimedefang, S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T,
T=S:6m;R:6m;E:15m

I do'nt know why it was missing these - but this was the problem - which is
solved now - thankx again to MARK PENKOWER.
