[Mimedefang] patch for: service mimedefang configtest

[Oliver Schulze L.]

Hi,
this is a patch mainly for RH o Centos servers.
It implement the parameter configtest ala apache httpd.

- You can call:
    # service mimedefang configtest
  in order to check the mimedefang-filter syntax, it ends up
  calling mimedefang.pl -test
- Also, it auto check the syntax before starting the mimedefang service
  and stop the "start" command if the syntax is wrong.

The patch is really simple, but maybe can be helpfull to others.

HTH
Oliver
