That's not MIMEDefang, that's sendmail. Check the contents of
/etc/mail/access.

This is just MIMEDefang acknowledging that something else
(either sendmail or another milter) has dropped the message.

} I think I should get a little more detail than this should I not?
Details from MIMEDefang are totally dependent on the filter. But
in this case, it has nothing to do with MIMEDefang.
