Short explanation of the milter parameters (they are not global but per
milter application adjustable):
The F= says what to do with the message if the milter is not running.
F=T Temporary fail connection if filter unavailable
F=R Reject connection if filter unavailable
If no F= specified and there is a problem with the milter, then the default is to continue normal handling, skipping the milter.
The T= specifies timeouts for communication. The following fields are defined:
C Timeout for connecting to a filter. If set to zero (0),
the system's connect() timeout will be used. Default: 5m
S Timeout for sending information from the MTA to a
filter. Default: 10s
R Timeout for reading reply from the filter. Default: 10s
E Overall timeout between sending end-of-message to filter
and waiting for the final acknowledgment. Default: 5m
[Btw. the milter application can run on a different machine than Sendmail itself, using tcp socket connection.]
