Okay, maybe the script avmilter.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
is the problem. If you issue the command in the MANUAL to
use port 3333 at localhost, it looks like this:

avmilter -p inet:3333 at localhost

But, here's the relevant portion from the script:


case "$1" in
     start)
 		if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/avmilter ]; then
 			umask 0077
 			/bin/rm -f /var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock
 			/usr/sbin/daemon -f /usr/local/sbin/avmilter \
 				-P /usr/local/etc/avmilter \
 				-p local:/var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock &
 			umask 0022
 			echo -n " avmilter"
 		fi
 		;;
     stop)


So, theres no mention of it there. This has really got
me stumped! I checked /etc/make.conf & there's nothing
there except some stuff I put for when I'm updating
src & rebuilding. Nothing about sendmail.
