Right, so you want to use one of the solutions I outlined in the `Sendmail 
Milter Question' thread. I think having two instances running is rather 
wasteful so I'd suggest upgrading to 8.13.x or at least rebuilding 8.12.x with 
-D_FFR_MILTER_PERDAEMON if you're running sendmail 8.12.x. It's much simpler 
that way.

That should still work with the MSA.
