Description: MIMEDefang is an e-mail filter program which works with Sendmail
8.12 and later. It filters all e-mail messages sent via SMTP. MIMEDefang splits
multi-part MIME messages into their components and potentially deletes or 
modifies the various parts. It then reassembles the parts back into an e-mail 
message and sends it on its way.

There are some caveats you should be aware of before using MIMEDefang. 
MIMEDefang potentially alters e-mail messages. This breaks a "gentleman's
agreement" that mail transfer agents do not modify message bodies. This could 
cause problems, for example, with encrypted or signed messages.

Unfortunately rpmlint isn't quiet on x86_32:
E: mimedefang non-standard-uid /var/log/mimedefang defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-gid /var/log/mimedefang defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-dir-perm /var/log/mimedefang 0750
E: mimedefang non-standard-uid /var/spool/MD-Quarantine defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-gid /var/spool/MD-Quarantine defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-dir-perm /var/spool/MD-Quarantine 0750
E: mimedefang non-standard-uid /var/spool/MIMEDefang defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-gid /var/spool/MIMEDefang defang
E: mimedefang non-standard-dir-perm /var/spool/MIMEDefang 0750
W: mimedefang service-default-enabled /etc/rc.d/init.d/mimedefang
W: mimedefang incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/mimedefang $prog

IMHO all lines marked with error can't be really avoided, the first warning line should be correct...when installing MIMEDefang, it should be enabled, too. Last warning line seems to be caused by some rpmlint confusion ;-)
