| If you look closely at the Makefile (don't just grep it), you'll see

My problem is this: I don't know how Sendmail works, leave alone milter.
I have heard alot of rumours about them though.
I know about `make config` (and a few other make options for a port).
I have never enabled milter in my options. Every time a new version is
realized, once I get convinced I need to upgrade, I've always run a
simple command:
portupgrade clamav
This has worked in over 20 FreeBSD boxes that I manage all these days
until version 0.88.3, when suddenly I saw OpenLDAP being built. On
one of the machines, I already had OpenLDAP installed, but clamav
port was installing a version newer than what I have.
So I have to use `portupgrade -m WITHOUT_LDAP=1 clamav` to work around
this. I don't want to touch the MILTER word at all.
This is what surprised me!
