Hi,
to use the milter API of sendmail, the easy way is to use
Sendmail::Milter perl module.
If you want to use Sendmail::Milter you have recompile sendmail and perl
rpm and then
Sendmail::Milter, then you can start writing your filters in perl.
If you want to use sendmail milter API with C filters, you have to
compile sendmail too.
In both cases, here are the sendmail and perl i386.rpm, src.rpm and
.spec files for RH7.0:

I have look in freshmeat.net programs that can process a MIME email and
look for posible VBS
viruses. Don't remember the exact name but seach for milter and you will
find it.
Regards
Oliver
