So then why do you claim mimedefang is failing?

What exactly are you trying to do?  Normally, we recommend to customers
never to run MIMEDefang on an SMTP server that MUAs connect to.  Instead,
use a dedicated submission server for your MUAs and have it relay to the
MIMEDefang server.  Otherwise, delays in filtering will really annoy
end-users.
