But if the socket is missing when Sendmail comes up there will be an error warning in the maillog produced by Sendmail. > Could be an "unsafe socket" problem; make sure that none of the > directories / /var /var/spf-milter are world-writable. Then too Sendmail would complain in the maillog. It could be a problem that an old socket file resides and the SPF milter server startup does not fully create a new socket file. You could prevent this situation by writing in the start() function of the SPF milter init script a line rm -f /var/spf-milter/spf-milter.sock right before the daemon line with which the milter is started. (Wouldn't be a more common location for the socket - and other milter files - /var/lib/spf-milter/ or /var/spool/spf-milter/?) > Paul.
