The Sendmail server provides the Milter API interface for integration with third-party filters. Kaspersky Security 8 for Linux Mail Server receives messages from the Sendmail server and sends them back using function calls of the Milter API. Messages are sent for scanning before insertion in the mail queue (before-queue integration).

To integrate the program with a Sendmail server, you to modify the Sendmail server configuration file manually.

In the [global] section, set the true value for theheader-guard setting of the klms_filter.conf filter settings file.

You can make changes to the Sendmail server configuration file as follows:

  • by modifying the CF configuration file.
  • by modifying the MC file and then creating the CF file from it using the m4 macro processor.

If you modify the CF file only, all modifications will be lost upon any subsequent creation of the CF file from the MC file.
