1
 
The sendmail Mail Filter API (Milter) is designed to allow third-party
2
 
programs access to mail messages as they are being processed in order to
3
 
filter meta-information and content.
4
 
 
5
 
NOTE: With Sendmail 8.12.0 and above, the Milter API is built-in.
6
 
Before 8.12.0, both libmilter and the callouts in sendmail are marked 
7
 
as an FFR (For Future Release).  This means that support is *NOT* 
8
 
guaranteed - but things have been working well, and the usenet/mailing 
9
 
list (comp.mail.sendmail) does help if you have questions/problems.

Everything you'll need to create a milter filter is contained in
