Milter

Synopsis

If you set up your mc configuration file to filter mail through external mail filter programs (Section 7.6.2), you might want to send more information to those programs than is provided by default. This Milter option allows you to do just that, and is declared like this:

O Milter.LogLevel=level                    configuration file (V8.12 and later) 
O Milter.macros.connect=list               configuration file (V8.12 and later) 
O Milter.macros.helo=list                  configuration file (V8.12 and later) 
O Milter.macros.envfrom=list               configuration file (V8.12 and later) 
O Milter.macros.envrcpt=list               configuration file (V8.12 and later) 
-OMilter.LogLevel=level                    command line (V8.12 and later) 
-OMilter.macros.connect=list               command line (V8.12 and later) 
-OMilter.macros.helo=list                  command line (V8.12 and later) 
-OMilter.macros.envfrom=list               command line (V8.12 and later) 
-OMilter.macros.envrcpt=list               command line (V8.12 and later) 
define(`confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL',`level')     mc configuration (V8.12 and later) 
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT',`list') mc configuration (V8.12 and later) 
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_HELO',`list')    mc configuration (V8.12 and later) 
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM',`list') mc configuration (V8.12 and later) 
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVRCPT',`list') mc configuration (V8.12 and later) 

If any of these commands are set without MILTER support (Section 7.6.1), the following error is printed and logged when sendmail starts, and the command is ignored:
