Of course. It all takes time and neurone cycles. There's a simple-minded but reasonable view of the milter API at https://howto.lintel.in/what-is-milter/ which has a useful diagram although it's inaccurate. This goes into significantly more detail: https://www.roaringpenguin.com/files/filtering-with-milter.pdf but beware that it's old, and it's mostly about MIMEDefang, which I used to use but found a trifle cumbersome so I eventually dropped it (and wrote my own MIME handling). Also I don't think the original owner of Roaring Penguin still works with mail so I don't know if MIMEDefang is still supported and/or promoted. There's a fairly extensive list of resources for which I can't necessarily vouch at http://milter.free.fr/intro/all.htm and you'll find a rather impenetrable but highly detailed description of the API in the 'docs' directory beneath the 'libmilter' directory in the Sendmail source code, for example this fairly up-to-date copy: https://fossies.org/linux/sendmail/libmilter/docs/overview.html That is, I'm afraid, the definitive guide for the milter API at least until I finish writing mine. :) Since you've mostly been asking about things to do with clamav-milter, this is more or less back on-topic again. :) -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
