Mr Jones,

Thanks for the quick reply. I have read the MILTER_README, but
it's just not clicking yet for me.

I have tried putting smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:10025 in
the main.cf file but in the logs I then get a connection
refused for the port.

Please don't top-post.

MIMEDefang must be running and listening on the port you tell postfix to use; the two ports must match for them to communicate. Or if MIMEDefang is using a unix socket, the path used must match the path given to postfix, and postfix must have file system permissions to access the socket.


From what I have read from other content
filter setups, you need to add something like this to the
master.cf:

Don't confuse milters with content filters. Although they can perform most of the same functions, the setup and implementation are completely different.

Disregard any how-to's you read that talked about content filters.


127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - - - - smtpd
-o content_filter=
...

The above settings are for a content_filter, such as amavisd-new. You don't use those settings with a milter.

The only postfix change necessary is adding the smtpd_milters parameter to main.cf.

The port you use must be the port that you configure MIMEDefang to listen on. That's set in the MIMEDefang config.
