That's a problem?

You don't need a global variable. Setting a global variable in
filter_sender wouldn't work anyway; read the mimedefang-filter(5) man page
carefully, especially the GLOBAL VARIABLE LIFETIME section.
Instead, do something like:
sub filter_begin {
my ($entity) = @_;
my $authenticated = ($SendmailMacros{'auth_type'} && $SendmailMacros{'auth_authen'});
# Do virus scanning here
if (!$authenticated) {
# Do spam-scanning here
}
}
Regards,
David.
